Bank of America has added in the online login a meter to keep track of how much was spent of your $2,500 quarterly limit on the Customized Cash Rewards card. The meter is being rolled out on the website and app, but is not yet available for everyone.
It’s a nice addition to easily track how much you have left on the $2,500 limit. As a reminder, the Bank of America Customized Cash Rewards card earns 3% and 2% on select categories, up to $2,500 per quarter. This is juiced up to 5.25% for Bank of America relationship clients who maintain $100,000 or more in assets in their bank or brokerage account.

I still haven't seen any tracker, desktop or mobile app.
Me too. No tracker, either in the desktop website access or in the mobile app. May BofA forgot about us.
dunno if this feature is only available on the mobile app, but it's feb 11 and still nothing and nowhere on the desktop website.
This rollout must be incredibly slow as I still don't see anything on a couple of different accounts.
My BofA also still doesn't have the tracker feature.
Where do you see it on the web site? Under Rewards & Deals? Looks the same as always to me.

now if I could just get any confirmation at all about having accepted a new money deposit offer from BOA. it's nowhere to be seen
I still don't have it.
Someday my grandchildren will get an upgraded BOA credit card bill pay service while I’m collecting social security.
heh...actually, one side benefit of the BoA cards is you can still use Paypal billpay to get a ton of debit spend done.
Tell me more 🤔 you mean on debit cards earning rewards?
Yep...Affinity's cash back debit for example, earns $10 on 1k spend, so I pay off the BoA cards in 1k chunks.
lol I stopped using this card exactly because it didn't have a spend tracker. Seems like they were counting on customers going past the limit and then getting next to nothing.
Sure of course it has a known cap of the $2.5k/qtr. If you were diligent you could export your transactions and sum them.
BoAs change category flow has a wonky buggy total by current month, prior month and last 3 most, but it's buggy enough to not trust it. So this update is welcome if it seems to track correctly. For posted transactions it seems correct so far.
Where does it show the meter? Can a screenshot be added? Clearly I don't seem to have it yet.
