I got one to help feed my Amazon addiction. Use it to get 5% back on Amazon. Pay it off each month.

I only use it for Amazon purchases. We buy enough on there so getting the 5% off is nice. Usually we'll bank the points and use them for Christmas shopping.

Just got it. As much as I spend on Amazon it seems like a no brainer with the 5% cash back Pay it off each month

Same. Pile up the Amazon points and cash back, and pay balance every couple of weeks.

As others have said, it's great with prime and the 5% back.

Just pay it off monthly.

I have one. I mainly use it for Amazon purchases. I had $97 worth of rewards the other day. That was only from a month or two of purchases. I spent it all this weekend. I have an amazon addiction.

I plan on using it a lot for diapers and formula. You can put them on subscription every month and they are cheaper. Also the pantry stuff is a steal too.

My only qualm is do I really need it and my Costco Visa card?

Costco Visa card


I do a good bit of Costco shopping to. What kind of rewards do you get with their card?

ETA: I just looked it up online and it appears you only get 2% back on Costco purchases. Not worth it to me. I get 5% back on amazon purchases with their Visa.

I honestly got it for the gift card and figured I'd use it when I use Amazon. But I have two other Credit Cards (southwest and Bank of America which has cash back rewards) that I use for any other purchase

No brainer if you're a Prime addict. Just set it up as your payment on your Amazon purchases. I noticed they are getting more aggressive with their non-Amazon purchase rewards as well.

Also, the gift card you get for signing up is nice. I think its $70. Sometimes they'll run promos when its even more.

I've had it a few years now. It's only worth using it at Amazon. They just mailed me a nice shiny new metal card.. went straight to the sock drawer.

I love it! It's 5% back on Amazon, 2% back from gas stations, drug stores, and restaraunts, and 1% everywhere else. That's better rewards than my Sapphire Preferred w/o the $90 annual fee.
