I would venture to guess that Supermarkets does not include wholesale, since Q1 was "Groceries, Sporting Equipment and at Wholesale Clubs, including Costco". It would appear that Affinity is using Supermarkets and Groceries interchangeably. Looks like a nice 7% stack on supermarkets/groceries coming our way.
Yup, that's called........Unicorn Flex!

The reason they ask is because I noticed that my Costco charges code as Grocery and I get 2x rewards. So during Q1, I was getting 2x + 5x for all my purchases at Costco (not 1x + 5x). So it's not far fetched to wonder if it will happen in this quarter (without the wholesale category). Even my Nespresso charges code as grocery with this card, whereas it won't with any other "grocery" card/category.

@randomguy1 I don't remember, but I think it was within a month? Probably when statement cut. Maybe someone more recently approved can chime in.
Well for me, I immediately changed my statement date when I was approved. So I had a shortened statement period from the beginning. Mine showed up as soon as the statement cut and was reported. And for whatever reason, TU and EQ reported much faster than EX, so it took about an extra week for EX to show.

Reported after 1st statement cut for me as well, I believe.
I applied for my card in late August last year and the first statement cut on 9/30/20. I think it reported 10/1/20 or around then.
