    \n
  1. Chase Ultimate Rewards has a 40% transfer bonus to Virgin Atlantic<\/a> through the end of February.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Kracken brokerage has a bonus on incoming stock portfolio transfers through March 31<\/a> and held on the platform through April 1, 2027. The bonus depends on whether you’re a paid Kracken+ member, which costs $4.99 monthly:

    – Non-member: 1%
    – Member: 2%

    You’ll pay about $70 over 14 months to be a member, so portfolios over $7,000 in value will do better with paid membership. You’ll also earn     $150 by going through Rakuten<\/a>. You can ACATS transfer in and out with this promotion, no need to liquidate assets and incur a taxable event. Apropos of nothing, SPIC insurance limits are $500,000 on securities<\/a>. (Thanks to DoC<\/a>)
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. The Rakuten American Express card has an increased sign-up bonus of $200 after $2,000 spend<\/a> in 90 days. This is a third party American Express issued by First Electronic Bank.

    This card is an absolute banger for the right use cases when you link it to a Rakuten account that earns Bilt or Membership Rewards if you’re good at grocery store spend. It is, shall we say, bordering on Unsung Hero territory.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Office Depot\/OfficeMax stores have $15 off of $300+ in Mastercard gift cards<\/a> through Saturday. For best results, buy even multiples of $300.

    These are Pathward \/ BlackHawk Network gift cards.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Have a nice Monday friends!<\/p>\n\n\n
