    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    Anything that goes through AP will be government spend and as far a I can see plat edge and explorer all pay 0.5/dollar It's really only good if you don't have a MC or VISA that earns more then 0.5 equivalent airlines points/$ A decent points hound should have a backup card though :-)

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    That's what happened with me. It was a verifone terminal if that helps. It only paid 0.5amex PPD. If I use my coles MC, with the 20% bonus. I get 1 velocity PPD So for me, I would still use my MC. It is good for people with no VISA or MC back up and only amex though. I am going to try it...

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    Don’t ask me . All I know is that when we insert Amex card if the payment doesn’t accept Amex like asic it doesn’t work . When we tap it worked .

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    That is a good point. I guess maybe some people won't have paypal to link and pay via postbillpay online. Also, some bills don't work via postbillpay like my ASIC fees.

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    AP only paid 0.5 PPD at the termial using AMEX explorer. Good for people without a backup MC or VISA earning points. Trick is to tap the amex card not insert and it works.

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    Yeah the terminal should not take Amex for utility payments and asic payments but it did . Will be interesting to see what category fall under the points fall under . The guy told her he is def getting points to make it worth while harvesting all these bills to pay . The only thing I can think...

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    Very interesting interaction with my aussie post owner this morning. She said AMEX and AP have some 'deal'. I paid my asic fees using amex - (she asked me to try and see if it works) . I told her AMEX will only pay 0.5PPD since it was AP, but she said some young guy is coming in paying all his...

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    Ahh ok - I think i got it So paying anything via AP is going to be 0.5PPD Explorer is 0.5 PPD for government bodies even via paypal (if they have flagged it right) So utilities and telecoms via paypal via explorer is still 2PPD

    Pay bill through Paypal by using Amex card, but still only receive 0.5 rewards points

    Hi I am a bit confused So explorer is nerfed @ AP - "government bodies in Australia where you will earn 0.5 points per $1 spent" Platinum edge is "excluding utilities, insurance (except those distributed by American Express), telecommunication providers and government bodies in Australia where...
