Episode notes
Wyndham Point Value Shift Changes Gas Math
- Wyndham points dropped in value from ~1¢ to ~0.7¢, which changes gas card math.
- That decline makes the Wyndham Earner Business less of a clear winner for gas spend.
Put Gas On Citi Custom Cash Up To $500
- Use the Citi Custom Cash for gas to earn 5x on your top category up to $500 per billing cycle.
- That effectively yields about 7.5% back if you value Citi points around 1.5¢ each.
Choose Amex Business Gold For High Annual Gas Spend
- Use the Amex Business Gold if gas is one of your top two monthly categories to earn 4x.
- The 4x is worth about 6.2% back and applies up to $150k per year, so it's good for high annual spend.
