So apparently....

there are two versions of the AARP card. I'm not sure if this is a known knowledge here... but I just called to upgrade to a Visa Signature card and the JP Morgan rep told me that I was eligible to either remain on the current reward structure or upgrade to the new one which would be 3% cashback on travel and dining purchases. Of course I decided to keep the current structure since I already have plenty of travel cards but the new card was expedited and would be here by tomorrow. Just thought I should share

Wait!  3% on both travel and dining?  Is there an annual fee?  I've never heard of this, and I'm a Chase cardholder and a member of AARP.  When did this happen?  I'm thinking this card could be a strong competitor to the CSP.

Why did you turn it down?  The current version is 3% on dining and gas, right?  How can that be better for you?

I've tried to get my mother to get this card, since she'd get more cash back than her Discover. But she's too lazy to apply. *shrugs*

Adkins.... both of your URLs point to the current version of the AARP card:  3% on dining and gas.

Both are those are links to the same card with 3% for dining and gas.  Nothing about 3% on travel.

Maybe because OP doesn't travel or because OP spends more $$ on gas and dining.

Double ding, nnnnnnnice. Yeah, I figured that out after I hit the send. And y'all had already posted about my mistake. I have no way to edit easily on my mobile, sorry. (Besides requesting webpage view, which really sucks.) Go ahead and delete my reply, thanks!

I can't find an AARP Card with 3% on travel and restaurants.

[UpperNwGuy]

I did some googling and just found this:

https://creditcards.chase.com/aarp/cardmember/cardbenefits/travel

I don't see dining listed for the 3%, but the 3% travel category is almost as broadly defined as the CSP and CSR.

No worries, we all do that sometimes.  I do see the following:

$200 Bonus Cash Back

After you spend $500 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening.
This product is available to you if you do not have this credit card and have not received a new cardmember bonus for this credit card in the past 24 months.
