For cashback offers, be sure to save the offers to your card before doing the transaction, and check the T&Cs for each deal to make sure you don’t do anything that would make the transaction ineligible.

For bonus transfer offers, head to the Membership Rewards transfer page and log in to your account to ensure the correct bonus is showing for you. Some bonuses are tiered or targeted to specific cardholders, so it’s worth checking the fine print. Bonus offers will show up in the description but not on the calculator.
