Quick Thoughts
If you’re able to fulfill the $10,000 spending requirement, you’ll come out ahead even when considering the 2.5% fee for using Plastiq.
JetBlue’s TrueBlue points are worth ~1.46cpp. If you spend exactly $10,000 using Plastiq, the bonus means you’ll earn 3 points per dollar, so ~4.38cpp of value.
The JetBlue business card also earns a 10% rebate when redeeming points for award flights, making the return closer to ~4.78cpp. If you also own the JetBlue Plus card, you’ll get an additional 10% rebate which makes the return more like ~5.18%. That means that even when accounting for the 2.5% Plastiq fee, you’ll still be getting more than 2.25% of value.

This would be even nicer if the Bank wasn’t rejecting people applying for the card for having too many cards. This card has suddenly become popular in the blogosphere so I went for it. Got shot down. Back to Amex, which loves me, fortunately. Blue Business Plus for 10k and 2X on everything. That’s a good deal!
