Capital One has added the ability for Venture & VentureOne cardholders to redeem miles for eligible restaurant delivery, takeout and streaming service purchases until June 30th, 2020. Cardholders will be able to redeem miles for 1¢ per point against these purchases (e.g make a purchase at a participating merchant and then you can apply points to these purchases after they post to your account by selecting ‘Cover Your Purchases’).
Can Instacart purchases be redeemed against miles currently? Can someone confirm?
Is there a minimum purchase price to be eligible for erasure?
.
We do NOT have miles credit cards.
My mom got two bouquets of beautiful flowers and vase from 1 800 flowers.com from Capital. We have other accounts.
Extended again through 4/30/2021
Was not able to erase a purchase multiple times on Venture One. Are you guys literally clicking multiple times in a fraction of a second?
Looking at the redemption T&C’s for my Cap 1 Venture, redemption towards wireless phone services is also included through 12/31/20
I was able to redeem Venture miles at this rate (1 cent per point) toward Apple in-app purchases. These had posted to my Venture account as “Apple.” That must have been considered “streaming.”
Nice move to allow people to more easily redeem points at a fair rate, at a time when many will be glad to trade points for the equivalent of cash back.
American Express needs to do this, too.
