- Riding high on 2017, now Lyft seeks hotel partnerships by Tnooz via VFTW. Don’t really see a lot of value for consumers in these sorts of partnerships. Think Lyft would be better served focused on credit card partnerships.
- Gemalto launches a new contactless credit card with a fingerprint reader by ZDNet. They are claiming that this is the first one, but I swear I’ve seen this before. Personally I don’t see this catching on at all, more of a gimmick than anything else.
- Met Changes 50-Year Admissions Policy: Non-New Yorkers Must Pay by New York Times. Can still get free entry if you’re a Bank of America debit or credit card holder on the first full weekend every month.
- Justin Timberlake Announces “The Man Of The Woods Tour”. There is a presale for American Express cardholders if Justin is you’re kind of thing.
Hey all, be careful with @SamsungPay Samsung Rewards cards. I exchanged 10,000 points for a $50 card and it expired less than 60 days later. Lost my $50. Samsung told me to go pound. Check your expiration dates @Drofcredit
