AMEX Green code uber eats as 3x?

[elixerin]

if anyone could share insight on above would be much appreciated, also wondering if other delivery carriers might be included in 3x as i know its 3x on all travel, or rides in general etc.. thanks

You should be able to (at least I can) buy Uber Cash for 5% off ($100 credit for $95 purchase price) through the Uber app, then use the Uber Cash towards either rides or Eats orders.

since that one is also a either or as well, you think that would code as 3x?

thanks for input

I got 3x with CSR on Cash, rides, and Eats...all coded as "travel"...but I don't have a Green.

In the other thread where you asked this very recently, you also expressed an interest in redeeming MRs via Schwab at 1.25 cpp. It sounds like you're not trying to be a wizard with MRs and get 4, 7, 10 cents per point or whatever crazy value with premium airfare redemptions.

So what I want to emphasize is that if you spend a significant amount on Eats, you should be focused on getting the best card for Uber Cash reloads (or finding some way to buy gift cards at a discount) and not worry about how Eats codes. Saving 5% cash (or more through some other route) will help you more than potentially earning an extra 1x or 2x MRs.

i have a vanilla plat now, i was trying to justify a downgrade to the cheapest AF card while retaining tradeline so that i can pick up the schwab and not have two Plat cards

i will be looking for those 5-10 CPP values for sure, its really for business/first class fliers and im someone who doesn’t mind economy/“premium” economy as they put it this is more so if after the research i put in to that route of redemption doesn’t pan out, i have a fall back 1.25 CPP cash deposit

Can’t confirm, but I’d imagine Uber Eats would get 3x on the Green under the dining category. I have the gold and all delivery services earn 4x, so imagine Green would be the same in terms of what counts and what doesn’t

[elixerin]

game changer, you’re confirming GOLD food delivery is included with 4x? no way.. i thought that was just dine-in only charges and supermarkets

[CaptJOB]

Gold does include at least GrubHub/Seamless as dining but UberEats codes as travel and only earns 1 point per dollar. Never tested DoorDash but I’d guess it should earn the dining bonus

thanks for the input, can confirm uber eats is only 1x on Vanilla Platinum :l
