Our Verdict
Myself and many others are locked out of Pepper due to password issues – they’re apparently experiencing technical difficulties for the past few days.
Reports are that Amex Business Gold to earn 4x if it’s one of your top two categories. And reports are that it counts as Online Shopping for BofA cards and Blue Cash card and ShopYourWay card. And it counts as Computer Software category for BofA Customized Cash Rewards cards and for 1.5x on the Business Platinum card.
15% off Instacart is pretty good, especially if you combine it with a credit bonus category. That said, the bonus points won’t be available for two weeks which makes the deals somewhat less interesting.
My thanks if you enter my signup code 584255 during the initial signup process. Those who signup with a referral code get double Pepper points on all purchases for 15 days. (Not clear whether these bonus deals will be doubled.) No referral links or references in the comments below, please.
