Wells Fargo Attune Confirmed 4% Purchases

Jordan23ww — Wed, 17 Jul 2024 20:47:45 GMT

Now that I've had the WF Attune card for a month I just wanted to report some of the transactions I've seen code as 4% and some I've seen code as 1%. Some of the 1% purchases were not a surprise. I made the purchases just to meet the Welcome Bonus. One particular that was a little of a surprise is that Uber One doesn't code as Uber. Also Gamefly which is an online video game rental company only coded as 1% too. Hopefully as more and more people share their experiences we can get a great list going!

Took a little get away to Denver and have a few data points to add. Overall, things went well but the inconsistency of MCC codes is an issue.

4% Verified:

Denver Art Museum (Sports, Recreation, and Entertainment)

Meow Wolf (Sports, Recreation, and Entertainment)

RTD - Denver Rail (Planet-Friendly Purchases)

Rover - technically still waiting to post but since they list it specifically, am adding

Only 1%:

Museum of Contemporary Art Denver

Too bad not all the museums are coding the same. Not sure what the MCC is yet for the MCA at 1% but at least it was lower $$ and still hitting my minimum spend for the $100 sign up bonus.

@G2244 thank you so much for adding these data points! Great to see most of the expected purchases coding correctly! Hopefully in time all musuems will code as 4% transactions!

I have another 1% category to report. Planning a trip to Florida to Universal Studios. Was going to buy tickets directly from Universal Studios, but my wife wanted to use the Undercover Tourist website, the same website we used to get discounted tickets for our Disney Tickets from last year. The tickets are legit and cheaper than getting them from the amusement parks.

It ended up giving us 1% back. We still came out ahead though which is why we went with Undercover Tourist. Based on how much we would've spent buying directly from Universal Studios, we would've gotten about $45 in cash back on the Attune card. Instead we got about $14 back in cash back and saved about $100 on the tickets. Would've been too good to be true to get 4% back and still save $100! Lol!

Only 1%:

I won't get an Attune for two reasons:

1. It's not set up to give high rates on "core spending".

2. Wells Fargo can't even reliably pay you the 4% on things that obviously should be 4%.

I don't want to take a hard pull for this. They're still promoting this card heavily to me, but once you read what people who have it are saying, nuh uh.

@IsambardPrince I do understand your reluctance. Definitely have to do what works for you and what is best for you!

Etsy is shocking. Since that's specifically listed as being a 4% on the website.

@unsungivy thank you for sharing these data points! Happy to hear you're getting the bonus on Apple TV now. The Barnes and Noble omission is interesting. I wonder if we start contacting WF about charges that possibly should be 4% if they will do anything to help get them changed?

The Showtime via Walmart+ is a unique charge. Mine always codes as Walmart for me. I have been trying to get it set up to be put on my US Bank Shoppers Cash card since that gives 6% back at Walmart for me. So far it keeps going to my Amex Platinum instead since that is how my Walmart+ membership is billed. I probably will need to call in to get it set up properly.

@SunriseEarth thank you for sharing these data points with us! Glad to see the 1800Flowers and Thrift store both coded correctly! It's very interesting to see Etsy not code as 4% eligible purchase. Also those other charges not coding is interesting too. I'm curious to know what they are being coded as?

I mentioned this with another commenter, but I wonder if us reaching out to WF letting them know stuff isn't coding as 4% would make a difference in them eventually being switched?

Please update us if you can get those split up. I have the same set-up with it being primarily to AmEx plat for the free Walmart, but would like that single part of the charge to go to a diff card (hell, even if it's just Discover having 5% Walmart this quarter).

@unsungivy will do! Yeah, I don't blame you! 5% for a quarter will be worth switching!

I mean, it would be worth the hassle if you can split the charges. But the fee for the Walmart+ being waived through Amex is better than 5% for the additional SHOWTIME charge.

Some anecdotes over on r/CC today suggesting Amazon is getting 4x points on this card with the Mastercard MCC. Unconfirmed, but if true could change rapidly if WF finds out.

@unsungivy that's an excellent point! I'd only be getting back about $5 a year if I switch my Paramount with Showtime to my US Bank Shoppers Cash card. So if I can't split the Walmart+ on the Amex Platinum card and the Paramount+ on a different card it won't be worth switching it to the U.S. Bank card if both Walmart+ and Paramount+ with Showtime both have to go to the U.S. Bank card.
