INK 5x on PPDG Dies a Second Death

Just a quick post for the few people who picked up on this (and for those who thought their INK was magical and wasn’t affected by the coding change).

Since October 17, Paypal Digital Gifts stopped earning 5x with INK Plus/Cash Visa cards. Not publicized was the fact that the change initially only affected PPDG purchases from eBay while direct PPDG purchases continued earning 5x as before.

This is no longer the case. Sometime between 10/24 and 11/2, PPDG-direct stopped earning 5x with Chase INK Visa cards.

This wave two change does not affect legacy INK Mastercards which continue to earn 5x on PPDG from eBay and PPDG direct.
