Gift cards, car rentals, vehicle service centres, miscellaneous fees and certain other Lyft products are excluded.

3x: Shipping, social-media and search-engine advertising, travel, and internet/cable/phone services. The first USD 150,000 in combined purchases in an account anniversary year earns 3x; purchases after the cap return to 1x.

1x: Other eligible purchases. There is no cap. Purchases in the listed 3x categories also return to 1x after the combined USD 150,000 limit is reached.

All points are calculated on eligible purchases net of returns and refunds. Cash advances, cash-like transactions, gambling, cheques, interest and fees do not earn points.

The traveller pays for mileage or services beyond the limits.

Purchase insurance

  • Cell Phone Protection

    Pay the entire monthly cellular-service bill with the Card. An eligible phone listed on that bill can be covered for damage, theft or involuntary accidental loss.

Report within 90 days and submit documents within 120 days.
