Credit card offer sync and activation
Sync and activate credit card offers
Quick answer: RewardSensei’s browser extension can sync available offers from supported Amex, Chase, Citi, and Bank of America accounts after you sign in on the issuer’s website. Syncing does not activate offers. Pro adds individual and eligible bulk activation in the extension. Confirm important activations in the issuer dashboard.
An offer may sit three screens deep in an issuer account and still require activation before the purchase. Once you sign in on a supported issuer’s website, the extension can sync available offers to your RewardSensei account.
Availability: Offer sync is available for supported issuers on the Free plan. All in-extension activation requires Pro and remains subject to issuer eligibility, session availability, and terms.Current distribution: Chrome and Firefox extensions are live; web and Android are in Closed Beta.

Offer sync and activation FAQ
Which issuers support offer activation?
The extension supports individual and eligible bulk activation for Amex, Chase, Citi, and Bank of America offers. Availability varies by issuer, account, and offer, and activation is always user initiated.
Does RewardSensei store bank passwords?
No. Sign in on your bank’s website. RewardSensei uses your active browser session and does not ask for or store your bank username or password.
Will every offer activate successfully?
Activation can fail if the bank declines it, your sign-in expires, the offer is no longer eligible, or your account reaches an offer limit. Check important offers in the bank dashboard before spending.
Is offer activation included on the Free plan?
No. Offer sync and viewing stay available on the Free plan. All in-extension offer activation requires Pro.
Does activating an offer mean the savings are guaranteed?
No. You still must meet the issuer’s merchant, spend, date, and payment terms. Activation makes an offer available; it does not guarantee redemption.
