$300 Annual Dining Credit

$300/yr

You receive up to $25 per month, capped at $300 per year, and unused credit does not roll over. Only purchases coded as restaurants qualify; gift cards, merchandise, and transactions at bars, nightclubs, grocery stores, convenience stores, caterers, and similar non restaurant merchants are excluded. Credits apply across all cards on the accounts.

Pro Tips

  1. 1Aim to use it early each month so it does not go to waste.
  2. 2Set a reminder or make the card your default payment method in your preferred food delivery app to ensure eligible charges hit each month.
  3. 3Using the card for your first restaurant purchase each month also helps you capture the credit without extra planning.
  4. 4Delayed processing can push a charge into the next month and cause you to miss the credit if you use it at the very end of the month.
