The Fine Print

- In-store only
- Limit 2 per household/business
Our Verdict
The limit-two is a bummer, but it should be possible to do more with multiple visits or a nice cashier. I wonder if the system will enforce the limit-2 or if it will be up to the cashier.
Nice way of locking in 5x UR everywhere by buying up Amex gift cards with INK and spending it down on regular Spend. Another option is to unload by paying your mortgage or other bills with Plastiq or pay your rent with other processors; these options do cost money, though.
Update: judging from the comments to this post it appears that the $500 cards are cash-only while the $200 cards can be purchased with credit.
