Featured GC rewards for PayPal Extras MC credit card month of March
-
For March, under GC featured rewards, ebay GCs starting from $25 up to $100 are shown with the pts required for each ebay GC. It is currently 1:1 so 2500 pts can be redeemed for $25 ebay GC. This is mailed to cardholder as physical card which one can re-sell if they wish.
Hilton business GCs are also featured but not as good as ebay GCs. For a $25 Hilton business GC, one need 2805 pts instead of the regular 3300 pts.
I put WM GCs on my wishlist to make it easy to redeem them when they’re part of featured GCs on sale for the month.

@Ma-Barker I didn’t think you had this card since you didn’t chime in on this thread: https://phatwalletforums.com/topic/5673/paypal-cashback-mastercard-questions. Are they different products? When did you get yours and what do you think of it so far?

Yes, I think the 2% PP Mastercard is different from the PayPal Extras MC which I have. I got this card late 2014, IIRC. Synchrony changed their T&C last year so I took it out of the sock drawer. Then when I saw WM GCs under their featured rewards in a month, I redeemed those instead of CB since WM GCs are more valuable to me when I get 10000 pts for $100 GC compared to 12000 pts = $100. This means I get to keep 2000 pts for the next redemption. I know many detest dealing with PayPal but so far, I have managed to toe their line with no difficulty.
I also like the fact that points I earned on the current statement is redeemable immediately unlike cashback from AXP blue cash which is delayed for one statement.

Sorry, I didn’t know what PPEMC meant so that comparison went right over my head. I didn’t even know PP offered a credit card prior to the 2% MC (which they send incessant emails about).
Is the PPEMC just a 1% CB card across the board? If so, why not convert to their 2% CB card (or get the Citi Double Cash or other higher rate CB card)? You wouldn’t have to wait for a 1 pt = 1 cent promo to cash out since that’s the set redemption rate on many other products.
ETA: I’m moving this to Hot Deals BTW since it’s a redemption offer for existing customers (and not an offer for new applications).
