Cards at an All-Time-High Bonus

By Alex Compton · Updated

A sign-up bonus is only worth chasing when it is genuinely elevated. We track every public offer against its own history, so you can tell a real record from a routine promotion. Right now 27 of the 174 cards we track are at a verified all-time high, while 60 are sitting below their best-ever offer. This page rebuilds itself the moment an offer moves.

Methodology: for every public card we store the bonus, spend requirement, and window at each offer we have tracked. A card is a "verified record high" only when the live bonus is strictly larger than every prior offer on file, so a card cannot appear here simply for repeating an old peak or for having thin history. "Below their best-ever" lists cards whose live bonus is at least 10% under the highest bonus we have recorded. Dollar values multiply the bonus by our published cents-per-point valuation for each currency; cash bonuses are valued at face. Every card links to its full review and complete offer-history chart.

Writers and researchers: every offer-history chart on this site is embeddable. Open any card review and use the "Embed this chart" snippet under its chart, free with attribution, and the data stays live as offers change. Cite our numbers with a link to Credit Compound.
