I'd like to give my $15 Uber credit for April to a family member. Is it as simple as deleting the Platinum card from my Uber account and then adding it to their account before their ride?

Just got the AF on Business card. Any reasons to keep it open?
I don't have any other MR point cards in my name so I don't want to loose the points either? (I don think I'm eligible for any MR cards has had all of them already). PP I have from my Reserve.

You can app a MR card even if you had it, you just won't be eligible for a SUB.
Why don't you get a BB+, which is a great all around free card, and a great way to keep your MR at full value.

you don't need to activate to use it, but they will cancel after 60 days if you don't give it

They already have a platinum card associated with their Uber account so could they get $30 off a single ride?
Followed these steps but credit still didn't get applied to the fare. A 5 min call to Amex resulted in a statement credit of $15

Possibly if you are targeted through cardmatch

DW got targeted at a spend bonus on her biz plat. Maybe if they'd give us back the 50% rebate this would be remotely interesting.

This is not a spend bonus and it's not targeted. When they introduced the cap, they made it adjustable according to account spend.
