I think you can look at the FX spread vs miles in a different way. how much does the FX spread u saved (e.g. $25 in ur case) contribute to ur next flight ticket vs the 3900 miles u could have earned (assuming 4 mpd) + 0.5% rebate from using amaze.
You've used wrong comparison. You should compare Instarem Amaze rate VS Youtrip rate instead of Google rate. Even Youtrip's rate is wrose than google rate.
hi demi, at 4:15 u mention it converts citi rewards to 4mpd in amaze at local spending. is it same if i pair citi premier miles card to amaze and 1.2 mpd also convert to4mpd?
