What Changed

The new welcome offer reaches as high as 50,000 points, compared with the previously listed public offer of 15,000 points. The 50,000-point offer requires $5,000 in spending within the first 3 months. The advertised maximum should not be treated as a guaranteed offer for every applicant.

Our Take

This is worth considering if your normal business spending can meet the requirement and you value Membership Rewards points. Check the actual bonus available before applying, and avoid spending extra solely to earn it.

Before You Act

  1. 1Check the welcome offer shown before applying.
  2. 2Confirm you can spend $5,000 within the first 3 months.
  3. 3Review welcome bonus eligibility restrictions.
