American Express is currently offering a 25% bonus for transferring your Membership Reward points to your JetBlue account. This means you can transfer your points at a 1:1 ratio. Unlike the offer that came around this past Spring, this offer is available for everyone is and not targeted! Typically, American Express Membership Reward points do…
UPDATE: This offer has expired. Back in May the The Business Platinum® Card from American Express OPEN upped its publicly available offer where you could receive up to 100,000 points. This is a reminder that this offer ends TODAY! While this is a great offer, the minimum spend is ridiculously highly making it unobtainable for many folks.…
Last year American Express launched a brand new credit card – The Blue Business℠ Plus Credit Card from American Express. This card will give you 2x points on every single purchase (up to $50,000 in purchases per year, 1 point per dollar thereafter) – no category restrictions. It is as simple as you can get and on…
Over the past week there has been an amazing way to save 20% off your Amazon purchase (up to $100 savings) by just applying 1 Membership Reward point (related blog post). Some folks were even able to keep on activating the coupon and taking advantage of the $100 savings multiple time. My account allowed me…

A few days ago I wrote a post telling everyone that Chase Ultimate Reward points are my favorite point currency. The points are extremely flexible and get a good value when you use them for travel. There are also many credit card that earn Ultimate Reward points so accruing this currency is not too difficult. The best way…
For those of you who are not aware, there are two types of Amex Membership Reward credit cards – those that earn full Membership Reward points and those that earn limited Membership Reward points. Accounts with full Membership Reward points means that you can transfer your points from your account to a partner hotel or…
While I am beyond excited that you can now transfer Amex Membership Reward points to British Airways Avios points at the reverted 1:1 ratio (a year or so ago it devalued to a 5:4 ratio), I am also happy to see a transfer bonus as well! This means for ever 1 point transferred, you’ll receive…
I wrote about this offer at the beginning of the year, but since many months have passed, I wanted to remind you all to take advantage of it… if you are eligible! For awhile now, you’ve been able to use your American Express Membership Reward points to pay for Amazon.com purchases. For every 1 point you redeem…
Through May 31, 2017, you will get a 25% bonus when you transfer your American Express Membership Reward points to JetBlue. Typically the transfer ratio is 250 Membership Reward points = 200 TrueBlue points, however, with this 25% bonus, you’ll get an extra 50 points, so 250 Membership Reward points = 250 TrueBlue points. This…
UPDATE: This credit card now earns a 35% rebate on all qualifying flights. If you opened the card between October 2016 and May 31, 2017, you’ll still be able to receive a 50% rebate for one year from account activation. Back in October, American Express announced a very generous benefit for The Business Platinum® Card from…
For awhile now, you’ve been able to use your American Express Membership Reward points to pay for Amazon.com purchases. For every 1 point you redeem you get 1 cent off your purchase, definitely not a value I’d redeem my points at. BUT…. for a limited time, if you link your Membership Rewards account to your Amazon.com…
My passion (and obsession!) for travel deals and points started over nine years ago the day I graduated college and took a job in management consulting.
