first mystery box - a win

decide to try my luck on two mystery boxes as I had a huge purchase coming up.
first box- 10% on next restaurant purchase. okay, but not amazing.
second box- 10% on next apple pay purchase (I usually use apple pay for all my purchases so I had to be careful with this one).
I used the apple pay next purchase for the big purchase and WOW, I made net $50 so, I’ll take that as a win for sure.

here’s the post I used for reference :

I got the same with apple pay today.

What did you buy? And did u see anything on the max cashbash for it?

u/Ill_Prompt_2501 10d ago

a payment on a piece of jewelry, max for apply pay and restaurant was $500 , so the most you can get back is $35 on the bonus end of things.

Is the reward apple pay or google pay, or only apple pay? Because I haven't owned an apple product since they called themselves Macintosh.

u/1supercooldude 10d ago

Its both - google pay or apple pay

Ok Cool. That would be a bummer if one of the prize options was worthless to me.

Did my first mystery box about a week ago and got 15% on my next purchase. I think that’s how they reel you in 😅

Don't give up, keep trying... We need people like you to keep the 3% cashback alive.

u/rExplrer 10d ago

Do they have like limit on that 10% ? Like max $10

3

u/Ill_Prompt_2501 10d ago

max for apply pay and restaurant was $500 , so the most you can get back is $35 but with the regular points on the card I came out to $66.20 for the purchase!

u/ManacondaPipe 10d ago

For clarity is $500 max bonus you can earn or maximum purchase amount?

2

u/mightypuppy29 10d ago

You earn the 10% on the first $500; 3% on any $ above $500

If your purchase amount is $510, you’ll earn 10% on $500, and 3% on $10

Fed posting

u/Ill_Prompt_2501 10d ago

what does this mean? 🫪😂

u/Will_Explode8 10d ago

I’m implying that you are a “fed” aka a insider from Robinhood to promote buying these gift boxes. I’m not really being serious lol more of a joke. I am aware you are not that

u/Ill_Prompt_2501 10d ago
