Yes, you will be able to set it up to automatically take care of buying the points from your credit card when you go to spend them. Or you can lock out such a thing from happening to prevent, say, your kid from just spending a lot of money purchasing things. You can also buy cards at the store for points, so that you won't even need a credit card to get and use them.
