Hilton Points purchase posted as?
« on: June 07, 2016, 06:35:15 PM »
I plan on purchasing the 160k points from hilton, and I'm deciding whether to put it on my hilton surpass (for the 10x points) or another card.

A ddfer told me they purchased it, but was on a citi card, and did not say how it posted.


Anyone here purchased using an Amex?



Thanks!

" Points.com and Hilton HHonors reserve the right to terminate bonus promotions at any time." At the bottom of the page it says "Powered by Points.com".

Since Points.com is processing the purchase, there's no travel/hotel bonus when using your CC. Best to use something like the Freedom Unlimited, SPG, etc.
