smart of Amex to make these acquisitions. It was nice to reserve the lounge from the app. Would like to see them integrate those apps more.

[@RJFinancial]

Agree, especially for the masses who don't mind using a portal or not booking things directly. This could be good for Amex.

[@robertjarrell7276]

I’m hoping to keep my Amex cards as I’m a dedicated Schwab Platinum fan, but waiting to see if they’re going to force me to give up my Gold with more useless crap like Resy. Unless they expand the restaurant selections past overpriced “dining” I may be on the way out. Fingers crossed.

[@RJFinancial]

Here's hoping for you sir... but sadly we know how this is likely to play out

[@thejokerspeaks]

Hopefully this is a sign of more credits, they're like Pokemon, gotta catch em all!

[@RJFinancial]

First generation was cool, but the time we were on Ruby and sapphire you could the designers were out of ideas

Thanks for the info + video!

Citi Strata Premier is 10x through the portal.

[@RJFinancial]

Fair point, I forgot about that one, thank you

[@Just_Stevo]

@@RJFinancial Citi isn't popular and I can't tell why? It's possibly the best trifecta out there for most people.

[@Adiscretefirm]

So if you book a $500 hotel stay to get the $100 credit do you get 5000 or 4000 points?

[@Just_Stevo]

@@Adiscretefirm 4000.

Joyful Sunday To You Brother RJ.

You as well brother

6:43 69.2% APR? While I pay off my cards in full every month, that interest rate looks a bit steep. Was that Amex text AI generated?

[@RJFinancial]

I think that b-roll shot is from an EU commercial. Most of ours hover around 30% on the high end

[@elitepctech]

@@RJFinancial - Did not realize interest rates on cc and charge cards were so high in the EU

[@SuperVeganShark]

I saw cards when I worked in the Philippines of 36 and 42%.

[@elitepctech]

@@SuperVeganShark - I heard rewards on Philippine cc were lacking as well compared to their American counterparts. Is this true?

[@SuperVeganShark]

@@elitepctech from what I remember they weren’t very good for new signup promos. Some cards would brag they would never have a annual fee or you could signup and get a small gift generally. A few cards had promos worth 200 dollars or so but those were considered high end in that market. It wasn’t worth the hassle as an Expat to sign up for a PI based credit card - everything is multiple forms and ids and get the permission of your barangay - village official. I never had problems using my US visa or MC there.
