السلام عليكم I have a credit card account in a bank in the west. The bank automatically rewards me a few cents for select purchases. They’re known as credit card points. I’ve heard that claiming the money from these points is haram. If so, is it okay to donate the money to needy Muslims?

If it is a normal bank then the whole thing is forbidden, the account and the card, but if it is Islamic I need more details on your situation to give an answer in sha'a Allah.
