still irrelevant since you don’t pay it yet and even if you do then it comes off something else .

all the none point perks we get from chase are immediately.

we get a 300 dollar yearly credit good for certain charges pertaining to travel . when my EZEE PASS. CHARGES post they are credited against it

so that posts when you make the charge . i have the sapphire reserve

my wife has the sapphire preferred . she gets a 50 dollar motel credit yearly which is subtracted instantly when we book

all these little coupon credits post immediately. there are at least 50-60 going at any time.

like clipping coupons , you scroll through the list and click on the coupon you want to add to your card

Stop. I didn't say anything about when you pay your bill. I don't care about that at all. I simply corrected you that it's NOT like a coupon where you get the discount at the point of purchase.

But wait, your card gives back on EZ-Pass? That would be valuable to me. I live in NJ of the Garden State Parkway. I work in NY. I take the PA Turnpike to visit my daughter in PBH. Even the Thousand Islands Bridge I take to enter Canada uses EZ-Pass, $3 USD, $4 CDN.

we get 3% back on ezee pass which when used for booking trips is multiplied by 50% so we get 4-1/2% back which goes for all the weekend trips we do .

we get a 300 dollar travel credit a year which includes ezee pass and parking fees .

the charge is credited instantly.

we average 1 to 2k a year in benefits we use.

i just renewed both our cards today …mine even paid for tsa pre check ..

all the little coupon perks we get are applied instantly so yep just like coupons

the sapphire reserve is 550 a year .

we get a 300 dollar credit for travel and parking fees , hotels , car rental ,flights , tolls .

we get free door dash worth 100

plus 60 bucks in free food a year

free instacart membership worth 100 and 15 a month in credits for groceries.

no insurance needed when renting cars , not even our own .

all points used for travel get a 50% boost

to many benefits to even list.

the sapphire preferred preferred is 95 a year but includes a 50 dollar credit for metal or hotel

What do you mean by "ez-pass when booking trips"?

But in general, it's worth the $550 if you travel? Hmm

[mathjak107]

the ezee pass gets 3% back for every dollar spent .

when you book a hotel , flight or car thru the chase/ expedia portal and use your points they get a 50% points boost .

so the 3 points are worth 4.5%

This still makes no sense to me.

Are you talking about EZ-Pass the toll pay system?

ETA: OK, since this is not clear here and I can see it will take about five more questions to figure out wtf you are saying, lol, I did some googling. Is what you mean that if you use the Chase card for your EZ-Pass replenishment, it counts as travel points the same way hotels/flights etc. do?

If that is the correct understanding, how then does it count for the multiplied points if you book a trip through chase/expedia? In other words, how does the booked trip know you will be driving on EZ-Pass facilities?

I'm wondering the same thing. We have high E-Z pass bills and one of our credit cards is charged whenever the balance gets below a certain point.

Are there certain cards that give more than the usual cash back for toll charges?

every EZPASS refill gets charged to the chase sapphire card …

they give us 3% back in points for every dollar spent .

all our accumulated points can be used in different ways .

one way we use them is to book our long weekends thru the chase/ expedia portal ..

all trips we use our point for get a 50% boost in value so 3% in points becomes 4.50% in points when paying for a trip with points.

in other words 100,000 points would be worth 150,000 in points for purposes of paying for hotels or flights or car rentals

I get 2% back on my main card, I basically get paid like $15-20 a month to use it.

i had gotten 100,000 points for taking the chase sapphire reserve card originally….plus because we were chase private clients we got 20,000 points for opening an an account .

i sent my wife an invite to get the cheaper chase sapphire preferred card .

she got 100,000 points as a bonus and i got 20,000 for referring her .

we then combined her 120,000 points on to my sapphire preferred card , where it combined with my points …the 240,000 points were then used thru my card to book our trip to chicago and got a 50% boost in value by going thru chase .

we got the air fare and luxury hotel All on points with enough left to book small two day getaways all year .

it was worth thousands of dollars
