Samsung Pay Rewards Hack

What is a product we all must purchase, regardless of the price at the pump? Gas!  Last week Samsung Pay ran a MasterCard promotion that required participants to make three purchases with their MasterCard via Samsung Pay in order to redeem a $10 Amazon gift card.  I wanted to get the gift card immediately so I could gift it to some lucky blog reader(check back tomorrow for a chance to win) but I did not want to make any unnecessary purchases.  After giving it some thought for a nanosecond, I came up with a game plan!

I decided to purchase gas after noticing that I was at a quarter of a tank. Earlier in the day, I had purchased a snack at the dollar store, so I needed two more purchases using my MasterCard via Samsung Pay.  To avoid going in the store twice to purchase gas, I pulled out my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and opened up the Exxon Mobile speedpass app so I could pay twice with Samsung Pay outside.  After making these two gas pump transactions, I was able to redeem the $10 Amazon gift card, which will be given away between 12-1pm CST Tomorrow!
