  1. Do this now<\/strong>: Register for Hilton’s Q4 promotion for 2,500 bonus points on every stay<\/a> between September 3 and December 31.

  2. Do this now<\/strong>: Link your Virgin Atlantic account to your Virgin Red account on the Virgin Red account page<\/a> for 4,000 bonus points, which you’ll receive via an emailed code after linking.

  3. The Citi AAdvantage Platinum Select personal card has a heightened offer for 75,000 AA miles<\/a> after $3,500 spend in four months and the annual fee is waived for the first year too.

    Citi makes it easier than a lot of banks to pay your bill in less orthodox ways.

  4. American Express has a targeted upgrade offer for Business Green to Business Gold cards<\/a> with 70,000 Membership Rewards after $10,000 spend in three months. Assuming you can hit that spend in 4x categories, that’ll net you 11x on $10,000 spend. (Thanks to joghi<\/a>)
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. The Citi Shop Your Way Rewards card<\/a>, the Yusuf Dikec<\/a> of credit cards, has sent new, targeted spending offers for August for online spend. We’ve seen:

    – 200,000 Shop Your Way Rewards points with $750 spend
    – $70 statement credit after $1,000 spend
    – $50 statement credit after $750 spend
    – $30 statement credit after $500 spend

    For the first time in forever, there’ll be music, there’ll be light<\/s>     Citi is now showing (some) registered offers on the Offers tab after logging in<\/a>; in my case, two of four are showing, which is divide by zero times more than before. (Thanks to con_man101, Brandon F, Jon, and Ben)

  6. The RebatesMe shopping portal<\/a> has a new member cash back bonus of $40 for new accounts that spend $10 or more through the portal in the first year. Rather than signing up directly on the site though, use a friend’s referral and they’ll earn $45 if you earn more than $10 in cash back in the first 90 days. Lots of numbers there, right?

    Typically RebatesMe requires only a new email address for sign-up, but may also do phone number text verification for redemption. (Thanks to     FM<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
