Why Aren't My Points Updating?

Comprehensive guide to troubleshooting points syncing issues and understanding which banks support automatic updates

Points syncing issues can occur for several reasons. First, determine if your bank supports automatic syncing.

Banks That DON'T Sync Points Automatically
  • Capital One - Requires manual updates
  • Bank of America - Manual tracking only
  • Barclays (some programs) - Limited sync support

For these banks, you'll need to update points manually in My Points.

Troubleshooting Steps for Banks That Should Sync

Step 1: Check Connection Status

  1. Go to My Wallet
  2. Look for any error messages on your cards
  3. If you see 'Connection Issue', click to resolve

Step 2: Verify Sharing Permissions

For Chase:
  1. Log into Chase.com
  2. Go to Security & Privacy > Linked Apps > My10x
  3. Ensure rewards sharing is enabled
For American Express:
  1. Ensure you're the primary cardholder (not AU)
  2. Refresh your Amex connection in Manage Connections

Step 3: Wait for Sync Timing

  • Initial sync: Can take up to 24 hours
  • Regular updates: Usually every 24-48 hours
  • Manual refresh available in Manage Connections

How to Update Points Manually

  1. Navigate to My Points
  2. Click + Add Program
  3. Select program type (Flexible Currency, Airline, Hotel)
  4. Enter your current balance
  5. Save and update as needed
Special Cases
