CardPointers Not Working for Most Users
CardPointers is a good tool with several valuable features. But most people probably most value out of the ability to add Amex Offers to multiple cards.
That feature has not been working in recent days, and not just on CardPointers. Savewise and Max Rewards are also having similar issues.
Now Emmanuel, who runs CardPointers, has shared the following message on reddit:
“Hi folks, after digging through a ton of logs and trying a lot of different things with my test logins in different regions, it looks like adding offers to multiple cards per login is working for only 10% of users since yesterday, vs 90% the preceding week. I’ve not yet been able to determine what’s special about that 10% of users, and if there’s a way to leverage that, but hopefully I can to maximize that existing feature.
To continue helping users to maximize their offers for that other 90%, I’m working on an update to the extension which will allow users to smart-add offers based on each cards’ category bonuses (maximize points + cash savings/points bonuses based on the offer), as well as a mode to prioritize specific cards over others (eg, you’re working on a welcome offer, so you might want to add offers to that specific card more than others), for when an offer isn’t able to add to all cards. You’ll also be able to rank your Amex cards in order of priority, all configurable inside the extension’s settings.
I’ll be sharing more in this thread once each update is live, though it will take a few more days of work to get that all going. Thanks for your understanding and patience, as the credit card game is always changing and evolving, and I’ll continue to do everything I can to help you maximize your cards’ benefits in every way possible.”
