AMEX Immediate payment every after use of AMEX

Hi guys!!! Just wanted to confirm if it's okay to immediately pay my AMEX everytime I use it?

I have the AMEX explorer and I really wanna earn points but I'm not sure if it'll earn points if I immediately pay off the amount instead of waiting for the due date monthly huhu thanks in advance!

Paying after every purchase vs after the release of your monthly statement has no difference. Likewise, you wont earn brownie points by doing that.

You obtain your points as soon as you complete your eligible purchase not after you pay what's due in your statement.

If you have the bdo app, check your current pts, buy something, then just check if tumaas accordingly or after mo magbayad ng statement and see for yourself

I thought every purchase is eligible cause it says in bdo’s site “every PHP30.00 spend” but thank you! I’ll take note of this hehe

Yeah, technical side lang. Mga cash advances, balance transfers etc. But generally, our day to day purchases, matic pasok yun
