The Uber Visa Card from Barclays is too good to be true as it has no annual fee and gives you more benefits than 98% of the cards on the market. Most bloggers won’t tell you about it. They are owned by the banks or are too greedy to do so. This is the best card on the market so when I see a survey in my email to fill out I do so immediately. I want to stop any chance of changes to this amazing card.
Currently you get an amazing 4x back on dining, 3x back on travel, and 2x back with online purchases including Uber rides. You also get benefits such as the top of the line cell phone coverage if you lose your phone or break it and a $50 credit on Netflix and music subscriptions. This is all without an annual fee. No other card does this. The bloggers won’t tell you that they are too busy pumping the Chase Sapphire card a useless card in my book but they get a hefty $150 commission on each application while you only get pennies back on dining and everyday purchases.
The survey asked me to look over the packages below and select the card that you would be most likely to apply for and use. I picked the right column as I would not apply for either. This is not as good as the current card offering.
Uber announced the details of their anticipated new credit card this week. Key features include 4% cashback on dining, $100 signup bonus, $600 in cell phone insurance, and a $50 subscriptions (e.g. Netflix, Hulu) benefit.
Uber and Barclaycard have partnered to issue this new Visa card which will be available for application starting November 2, 2017. The following rewards can be earned:
4% back on dining which includes restaurants, fast-food restaurants, takeout, and bars, including UberEATS. You really can’t beat the 4% dining cashback with any other card unless you have Chase Freedom or Discover IT at 5% during the 3 months a year they offer this.
3% back on airfare, hotels, travel agencies, and vacation home rentals including AirBnB
2% back on online purchases which includes online shopping, Uber, and streaming services. This includes retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, and Macy’s, as well as Netflix, Pandora, HBO Now, Apple Music, iTunes, and Google Play. And also certain online services like Instacart, Shyp, Angie’s List, Handy, Thumbtack, FlyCleaners, and TaskRabbit. Does NOT include: online purchases paid with third party payment methods including PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay and Android Pay. Also does not include online purchases from merchant category codes that include Utilities, Contracted Services, Government Services, or Professional Services.
Apple sold over 5.5 million Mac computers last quarter which is enough to give every person in Ireland one of their own. With highly products such as the iPhone, iPad, and now the Apple watch more and more people are turning to the Apple ecosystem of products to stay connected with family and friends. There are some things to do before buying an Apple product because they are not cheap. Make sure you plan your Apple purchase ahead of time and decide which rewards card you are going to use to maximize your cash back. This Barclaycard Visa offers no-interest financing on purchases made at Apple as well as 3 points per $1 spent at the Apple Store and on iTunes.
You’ll earn 3 points per $1 spent at the Apple Store and on iTunes, 2 points per $1 at restaurants, and 1 point on all of your other purchases. You can then get a $25 Apple Store Gift Card for each 2,500 points that you earn. As a bonus you can receive no-interest financing up to 18 months on purchases made at Apple within the first 30 days of account opening.
To get the special financing just go in the Apple store with the card or buy online and you’ll pay no interest for 6 months on purchases under $498. If your purchases are from $499 to $998 then no interest for 12 months and no interest for 18 months on purchase of $999 or more.
The best way to buy Apple products such as the Apple Watch is to purchase it online to get an extra 1x back on purchases with Ebates. This would put you at the 3 points per dollar from the card then another point per dollar from the online cash back site. You are still buying from the Apple store online but just clicking a link through Ebates. They also offer promotions where you can get 3x or more on certain days. (more…)
