What do people think of this change? They all seem to be doing it… sorry if it has already been discussed but I couldn't find a post on it.
We're looking at ways to improve your rewards experience by removing your options..?
"Effective 20 September 2020, merchandise on the Global Rewards site will no longer be
available for redemption as we continue to bring you more digital…."
So only select and credit back off card will be available. Which seems to usually be less of a 'reward'. e.g. $100 bunnings card is 35800 points. redeeming off your credit card about $15 less for the same amount of points.
That said the select and credit back at least means you can 'save' on stuff you have already bought and it is probably easier such that you don't have to wait for a card… but if your a coles/woollies card person you loose 15 bucks/15%.
Edit: typo.
