Our Verdict
Great deal if targeted.
DP:
4/25/2024 – Purchased five $25 grocery gift cards via digital wallet in five separate transactions.
5/28/2024 – Received $25 in Cashback Bonus Rewards (“Everywhere Else”) on statement date.
I did the required 5 transactions in April, last one was around April 16th. Nothing has shown up in my account yet. Statement just dropped and still nothing. When does the bonus show up?

Purchased 5 $25 gift cards at Aldi, yesterday. Waiting for purchases and cashback to post.
Also get 5% cash back at gas stations this quarter, so I’m fueling up and buying $25 gift cards there. Double dip…total 25% back. Plus using Upside app for fuel, 10 cents off per gallon. Triple dip. Have to scan the receipt when using digital payment but that worked fine.
Discover has restaurants and drug stores for the 5% cashback categories for Q1 so this might be useful to take advantage of when combined with the cashback if targeted.
Looks like costco instore accepts google pay. Does that mean I have to use my phone to make the payment? I much rather buy something online (like a costco gift card), than install some money app on the phone.
The only way to make a digital payment in store would be digitally With ozone. Most phones have default apps so wouldn’t think you’d have to install anything.
“Most”. This phone (oneplus 7t) has third party android 12 rom on it (stock stopped at android 11). There’s nothing extra installed that doesn’t need to be installed. Old school here, prefer to use the physical card.
Same here. Like the physical card. Don’t want an app selling all the data. Look at the recent insurance stories and how you a tracked. Don’t want to be penalized on insurance rates if I break hard due to avoiding a deer or another vehicle.
Costco only accepts Visa in-store.
considering they gave me an extra 2% on $7500 spend this year, I don’t think I’ll be targeted for something in a bit
Wondering if gift cards work for this? Any DP?
No reason that they wouldn’t
Myself and P2 were targeted.
