The Bank of America Cash Rewards card allows you to choose one of 6 categories which earns 3% back on purchases up to $2,500 per quarter. The six categories are: gas, online shopping, dining, travel, drug stores, or home improvement and furnishings. It’s especially interesting since relationship customers get as much as 5.25% back due to the 75% rewards boost.
A lot of people have asked about which online merchants are included in the Online Shopping category. Most regular online retailers should work, e.g. Amazon.com, Walmart.com, Newegg.com, etc., but we won’t know for certain until we hear actual reports on the ground.
Please contribute any data points you have in the comments below. Feel free to add any data points about the other categories as well, but the online shopping category will be the primary focus here.
You can follow along the comments to see what works, or you can use the Comments Search Bar (found direct above the comments) to look up a particular website. I’ll also incorporate any data points found in the comments here into our Payments Workshop which tracks such information across many cards and programs.
