He probably means it made it easier for them to load money.
Yup. They agreed to help me when all it entailed was going to CVS, buying out a rack of VRs, and sending me the pins. I felt bad asking them to do too much spend for me when we started having to buy OVs, and go to WM or buy MOs. Now that it's just a trip to Target (where my mother goes all the time anyway), and a few swipes, I don't feel bad having them do a whole lot more spend.
