Uber has always been my ride share service of choice especially because I get my monthly Uber Cash with my Amex Platinum. However, I recently learned that I could “triple dip” if I use Lyft as I can earn Delta SkyMiles, Hilton Honors Points and the rewards earned from using my card for payment. In my case, my card would be my Chase Sapphire Reserve and I would earn Chase Ultimate Rewards points on the ride.
Specifically on one Lyft ride, I would earn rewards as follows:
a. 3 Chase Ultimate Rewards per $1
b. 2 SkyMiles per $1 on airport rides or 1 SkyMile per $1 on other rides
c. 3 Hilton Honors points per $1
It was very easy to set up too. I didn’t even have the Lyft app on my phone, but added it. I then went to the menu and went to “Promos” and I followed the prompts. As you can see below, both my Delta and Hilton accounts are “connected”.
It is a very easy decision. Once I use up my monthly Uber Cash each month, Lyft will be the app I turn to for my rides. I want to triple dip!!
