Burger King and Visa Offer Cash Back for Paying with Credit Card
By Seth Harbison
Burger King is running a promotion through August 31 which will reward customers who pay with a Visa credit card or check card by giving a free meal (via a statement credit of a maximum of $7.00) after every 10 Burger King purchases with a Visa. Given the relatively short time frame of the promotion, Burger King regulars will have to get their cards out quick if they’d like a freebie.
To take advantage of the promotion, they’ll also need to register their cards first, at www.visa.com/bkdeal.
Credit card companies have been making a consistent push in the last year or so to get consumers to make small purchases with a credit card. This deal between Visa and Burger King can be seen as a tactic to get BK regulars into the habit of pulling out their cards instead of their cash.
