The only rate I have below the 28% you referenced is my new Savor at 26.24%. Fortunately it hasn't mattered since I've been PIF.
Congratulations on getting the offer! That's a great thing. In regards to dating my Mom would say run away until you catch him! I guess it could be said in terms of credit as well! Run away until you catch the better ones.
Appears you have a nice rebuild with the cards in your signature. It's got be nice that you are being courted so fervently. Kudos for the offer and more Kudos for your restraint. Many fold to easy. More should be given accolades for their discipline.
Without the comma after dating, all I can think of now is dating your Mom!

Different cards, different purposes. I love them both. Happy to answer any questions about them via PM if you'd like FMO.

Love it. ❤️
I have been targeted for a while barely using my Venmo account.
I'd like to get the USB Cash + for 5% on Utilities but if I can't, this might be an option at 3%.

There's no blanket answer but IMO most people would have a hard time coming up with a compelling reason to do so.
I did get a "You've been selected to apply" email from them yesterday but no mention of a SUB, just another DP pointing to the offer being targeted.
They target me with this pretty much every time I login to Venmo...but I don't want the card, either. It's not a bad SUB to churn, but that's the only thing I'd do with it. The card isn't totally terrible, especially given that competition like the Custom Cash and Cash+ aren't the easiest things to get approved for during an earlier stage rebuild, but there are better options for later stage rebuilders.

@NoMoreE46 How often do you use Venmo? I use it monthly to pay my rent/utilities (utilities are in my landlord's name and they're a close friend), but otherwise only if I need to pay a friend back for a meal, concert ticket etc. I try and be the one purchasing in those cases whenever possible though.

I read somewhere that Venmo, under the "Groceries" category, gives you 3% CB at Costco and Walmart - can anyone confirm?
EDIT: Oops, I see @UncleB confirmed about Walmart - can anyone confirm about 3% CB under Groceries for Costco (or BJ's?)

Bumping this one up since I never got a reply. ^^
I just now got the email with the $200 SUB offer. Might be userful to use for Walmart+ items and Costco/Bjs if the Grocery category gets triggered using it there
