I am looking at getting the Chase Sapphire Preferred card and I am worried about spending $3000 in three months. I was looking at making one Amazon Payment of about $500.00. Can I send the payment from the credit card to my own bank account? Sorry if this question has been answered before. I did search the archives and could not find anything.
Welcome to MP. Rather than speculate, I'm going to refer you to this thread where they've been discussing Amazon payments. On a side note, if you are looking for somewhere to building you spending, please check out the Milepoint Kiva Team.
I would recommend against it, although there are some in the other posts that is referenced above that say you can have two separate email accounts and it works out. You would definitely have to set up two amazon payment accounts with two different email accounts. Then, you'd have to link one to your credit card and the other to your bank account. As I said, I'd be wary of doing it, and don't have any personal experience doing it. But if you are going to do it, that would be the way to go about it.
This is exactly how I have handled using Amazon Payments(A.P.). Two separate email accounts and two separate Amazon Payments accounts(The wife and I). One A.P. linked to the card and the other to my bank account. I've successfully sent $1000 every 30 days fee-free when trying to meet the minimum spend. I only use this when absolutely needed to help meet that high minimum spend though. Good luck!
We have 3 email and 3 Amazon accounts. Always do 3 transfers per month. No problems whatsoever. That way we never have a "back and forth" set of transfers.
My 'household' is 2... my wife and me. Everyone else is just 1:1. I wish they'd sign up more accounts though
Amazon payments been good to me. Been paying my wife monthly and she been paying me. So far no problems.
For one, it seems to actually have a working website. Beyond that, last time I tried to use Serve, the limit was $100.
