Chase Amazon

So I wouldn't be able to transfer them into United Miles?

THAT I'm not sure about. I know when I login to chase and selects the rewards section, it gives a special number to call if I want to use points for travel. I've never tried it as I'm not ready to use my points.

In the old days, that was something like 40K points for a ticket to Europe (max value $850) or something, so I think that it different from the other Chase cards.

were you around in the 90s? Amazon was born as an online competitor to Borders and Barnles and Nobles. As time went on they just became a Bookstore + and now they compete with Wal-mart. Their MCC has been bookstore for who knows how long.

Only reason why Amazon is 5 TYPs is because Citi considers it a bookstore. I wonder when that will change soon

I have 3 cards from Chase already: United was my first, then CSP and got the Select back in Sept because of the hidden TL CLs are 5k, 9.5k and 5k.

I do a lot of shopping on amazon. Is their amazon card worth getting? Also, is it too soon for me to apply? Would they even let me get a fourth card with them? I don't want to waste a HP if the odds are against me.

What does TL stand for?

Not just Citi, any Visa and MC card consider Amazon to be bookstore (be it Chase, BofA, US Bank, etc).

That is because Amazon started out as a bookstore. MCC Amazon use is bookstore.

Why are you interested in the Chase Amazon when you have the store cards ?

Because of the points. Store credit is used for 0% whenever I need to get something I can't pay off in the first billing cycle.

If you have a points reward credit card I would use it rather than getting another one.  Than advantage to that is your points would grow faster towards whatever reward your aiming towards. I have only one points rewards credit card (Chase Amazon) all my other credit cards are cash back. I rarely use the Chase Amazon credit card.
