这卡拿到卡的前5天消费1刀是5个点,up to 5 万点。如果暂时没有1万刀的花销的话,可以用来预付税。虽然需要额外交接近2%,但是这个点数转到阿拉斯加航空的话还挺值的

several credit cards allow you to pay rent and earn rewards, though it often involves third-party services to process the payment. Here are a few options:
1. **Plastiq**: This third-party service lets you use most credit cards to pay rent, mortgage, or other bills. They charge a 2.85% fee, but if you have a rewards card with high points-earning potential, it might be worth it.
2. **Visa and Mastercard through RentPayment**: Some landlords accept Visa and Mastercard payments directly through services like RentPayment. There's usually a fee, so make sure to weigh it against the rewards you'd earn.
3. **American Express**: If your landlord accepts Amex, you can pay rent with an Amex card. Amex cards tend to have high rewards in specific categories (e.g., travel or dining), but they often don’t work with third-party rent processors like Plastiq.
4. **Discover**: Some landlords might accept Discover cards through platforms like RentPayment, but it depends on the specific service they use.
Make sure to calculate whether the rewards you earn outweigh the processing fees to determine if it's worthwhile. Bilt is unique because it lets you pay rent without a fee, but these other options might also work depending on your goals.

There aren't many credit cards that directly allow you to pay your mortgage and earn points, but there are workarounds through third-party services. Here's how you can pay a mortgage with a credit card:
### 1. **Plastiq**:  Plastiq is one of the most common third-party services that allows you to pay your mortgage using a credit card. They charge a 2.85% fee per transaction. You would pay Plastiq with your credit card, and they send the payment to your mortgage lender via check or bank transfer. 
While Plastiq accepts most credit cards, it's important to note that **Visa** and **American Express** do not allow mortgage payments through their cards, but **Mastercard** and **Discover** generally do.
### 2. **Some Visa/MC Cards via Services**: Certain Mastercard and Discover cards might allow mortgage payments through services like **RentPayment** or **RadPad**, although these services often have processing fees. Visa cards generally do not allow mortgage payments through third-party services.
### 3. **Bank of America’s Premium Rewards Credit Card**: Some people have reported being able to use this card through Plastiq to pay their mortgage and still earn points, but the 2.85% fee might offset the rewards unless you’re strategically earning with bonus point promotions or sign-up bonuses.
### Key Considerations: - **Fees**: Typically, paying a mortgage with a credit card through third-party services incurs a fee, usually around 2.5-3%. You'll need to weigh whether the rewards you earn from points justify that fee.    - **Card Restrictions**: Visa and American Express generally do not allow mortgage payments with their cards through third-party services like Plastiq, so your options might be limited to Mastercard or Discover.
In conclusion, **Plastiq with a Mastercard or Discover card** is likely your best option for earning points when paying your mortgage, but always calculate whether the rewards outweigh the processing fees.

Loan Depot
Need Data Point for the following:
Union Home Mortgage StarOne Credit Union Truist Bank Patelco Cresit Union DHI Mortgages Discover Home Loans LoanCare Mortgage Lakeview Mortgage Citizen Bank Mortgage KeyBank Mortgage Huntington Mortgage First National Bank M&T Bank
Does anyone know if any other Bank/lender can be added to this List?
