Yesterday\u2019s post spurred plenty of questions, discussion, and further digging. Sam at HelpMeBuildCredit.com<\/a> started by letting me know about other heightened offers from Barclays, and I heard from many of you about their rules. Let\u2019s go over both:<\/p>\n

  1. The JetBlue Business Card<\/a> has an offer for:\n

    \u2013 80,000 TrueBlue points and a $99 statement credit after spending $2,000 in 90 days<\/p>\n

    The card has a $99 annual fee which is effectively erased by the statement credit. As with yesterday\u2019s Barclay AA card offer, this one is probably a \u201cget the sign-up bonus, sock-drawer, then cancel or get a retention offer after your one year anniversary\u201d card. That said, I know a few of you like to keep it and spend $50,000 a year for Mosaic status.<\/li>\n

  2. The Hawaiian Business Mastercard has an offer for:\n

    \u2013 80,000 Hawaiian Airlines miles and a $99 statement credit after spending $2,000 in 90 days<\/p>\n
