Pretty killer Amazon offer
« on: January 17, 2017, 08:56:15 AM »
Prime members: you can get a 5% cashback card
https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201739600
AND, they give you a $50 gift card when approved! bam! I did not see this advertised, but there it is.

Additionally, they are offering the 5-10% gift card program again this year with H&R Block

Enjoy

The link you posted refers to the Amazon Store Card by Synchrony Bank.

You can get a better deal by getting the Chase Amazon Prime Visa which also offers 5% cash back on Amazon purchases, plus 2% cash back on restaurants and gas stations, and 1% cash back on everything else. Plus it has a $70 gift card signup bonus. Just about better in every way compared to the store card.

Anyone know if Amazon is partnering with any other companies for the bonus with the tax refund?

I've done this for the past few years, but usually with turbotax. Haven't started looking into it for this year.

Wow that is better, thanks
I've had the old 3% card for a while, was not aware there were 5% card(s)
Rocking the amex 6% for gas & groceries.

They literally just bumped it from 3 - 5% within the past week, though you do have to also be signed up for Prime.

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
