Our Verdict
Good category, but low maximum.
FWIW, it looks like the Feb bonus 5x “Earn 5% Rewards … 5 extra reward points per dollar spent … on top of any existing points you already earn”.
Whereas the March bonus was 4x, “Earn 5% Cash Back on Groceries … 4 extra reward points per dollar spent … on top of any existing points you already earn”
Subtle, but I didn’t notice.
Bonus points paid March 5th, “5X Grocery Bonus – Feb21.” Statement closed March 4th, not sure if that’s related. $1000 in VGCs from Safeway triggered.
I received this offer, max of 3000 points this month.
I got a 7% offer this time. Groceries is always my 3% category on the ClearPoints; not sure if that’s related or not.
Also 8X on fraud charges
anyone know if buy GCs from Safeway qualifies for 5%?
– Activated offer using the link in the email, directed to the “Congratulations” page
– Made a purchase at Walmart. Transaction showed as “Grocery” in both the accounts and rewards pages.
– Only earned the usual 1% points.
Just BBVA being shitty as usual, nothing to see here.
1k grocery only earned 1x for me too. Complaining
Walmart is typically excluded even if it “codes” as grocery. Other usual suspects are Target and wholesale clubs.
Not true, my Walmart codes as groceries on Visa/MC and I buy most of my groceries there, and I always get to grocery promotion points. Only Amex & Discover exclude Walmart even if it codes as grocery.
Depends really on the issuer overriding…Barclays excludes and whoever else.
The terms in the email said “ Reward points will be added to your account 2-6 weeks after the promotion ends and can be redeemed for a statement credit. ”
I received this offer on BBVA Amex but the subject line is “Earn 5% Rewards on groceries for someone you love”
I miss that BBVA NBA Card — 5x during the All Star Games and Playoffs.
