This program is a big waste of time, effectively, in I think the best case its like .0001% cashback. There isn’t any point in paying attention to it because the you might as well keep your eyes out for pennies on the ground if you’re looking for a higher return than using this program

Worse yet they didn’t even bribe us with 1-2K of devalued points, to stop by a carrier store to see newly launched Note20,

The reward program is even more worthless now. That’s quite a feat. I buy discounted gift cards and use it to get 3x on my Altitude card. I haven’t paid attention to the points program for quite a while since it’s so bad.

To earn something in their Reward Program, you need to make purchases using Samsung Pay at the speed of AK-47.

I think you have to wait 5 minutes between purchases to count though

I am surprised samsung rewards are even part of the discussion anymore as they have devalued this program so much over last couple years.

Every time you think they’ve reached the bottom, just wait a bit, they’ll find a way to make it worse.

This looks like an even worse downgrade tbh. Now you need 29 transactions to go to the next level unless you are buying gift cards

giftcards is all i use it for honestly. and even then, the rewards points are still nearly worthless and too slow to accrue
