Does your Dad have a GM Mastercard? I think you might be talking about a different program. My GM Mastercard is one of the old original ones. I get 5 percent on every purchase. I can use this against a new vehicle purchase. I don't think that card is still available. I've heard the rewards are much lower now. This Mastercard just changed from being issued by Marcus to Barclay's. I think this is the third or forth bank that has issued this card.
