The churn-o-tron has a figurative, literal, figurative fire bomb of news today:
- The Bank of America AirFrance / KLM FlyingBlue Mastercard has an increased sign-up bonus:
– 70,000 miles after $3,000 spend in the first 90 days
– 30,000 miles after $7,500 total spend in the first six months
– 100 XP
You can hold multiple FlyingBlue cards. For bonus fun points, get one in Dutch and one in French. Or I guess two in French if that’s how you roll. - The PenFed Defender Visa was announced yesterday, and the waitlist is open. The card’s vitals:
– No annual fee
– 5x at gas and EV charging
– 3x at grocery, restaurants, sporting goods, military commissaries, and base exchanges
Before you get too excited, PenFed is really good with gas pump versus gas store coding, and their points are worth about 0.8-0.9 cents each. (Thanks to MattyB) - Bank of America has targeted $750 sign-up bonuses using this link on:
– Customized Cash Rewards
– Unlimited Cash Rewards
– Travel Rewards
All three require $5,000 spend in 90 days. For bonus fun points part deux, get multiple with multiple tax IDs or products. - Kroger stores have a promotion for 4x fuel points on third-party gift cards other than Amazon and flexible fuel cards today and tomorrow.
For those playing only casually: Watch out, Kroger stole bonus points and is now requiring ID and a social security number for BestBuy gift card purchases over $200. - Meijer mPerks has 10,000 bonus points with $100+ in MasterCard gift cards through Tuesday, one per account.
These are Pathward / BlackHawk Network gift cards. - Capital One Shopping is “featuring” giftcards.com today. As of this writing, I don’t know what the featured bonus is though so watch for egg on my face.
- Alaska Atmos, also known as the last to the finish line, added a back to school shopping bonus like earlier finishers American, Delta, Southwest, and United. Alaska’s is 2,000 miles after $750 spend by August 10.
Giftcards.com will work for these.
Have a nice weekend friends!
