To be eligible, you can\u2019t have had a Bank of America business checking account within the last year.\n<p>The effective APR on this deal is 10% if your money is held for 90 days, or 15% if you hack the bonus, so still probably worth your time.<\/li>\n<li>BoA also has a nice offer on the AirFrance\/KLM FlyingBlue credit card. The current offer is 70,000 FlyingBlue points, a $100 statement credit, and 100 FlyingBlue XP (elite credits) after spending $2,000 in 90 days. There\u2019s a $89 annual fee on the card.\n<p>To see the offer do a <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/flyingblue.us\/\">dummy points or cash booking<\/a>, though apparently not everyone can make the offer appear with a cash booking. Besides the miles, this sign-up bonus is useful for getting you half way to FlyingBlue Gold status which lets you book <a href=\"https:\/\/wwws.airfrance.us\/information\/meilleures-offres\/la-premiere-offers\">Air France La Premiere award tickets<\/a>. Even better, open one now and second one in a few months to get the whole way to FlyingBlue Gold. (<em>UPDATE: Vicky via MEAB slack let me know that you technically need 280 XP for Gold because your XP resets upon attaining Silver, and unfortunately the sign-up bonus XP points don\u2019t stack. The anniversary XP bonuses do stack however.)<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Have a nice weekend!<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-editorskit-rounded has-ek-typography\" style=\"\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4486\" sizes=\"(max-width: 531px) 100vw, 531px\" src=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/flyingblue.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/flyingblue.jpeg 531w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/flyingblue-300x232.jpeg 300w\" width=\"420\"\/><figcaption>Pictured: Three AirFrance\/KLM FlyingBlue elites<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bank of America helps us wrap up the week with a twosome: BoA has a $500 sign-up bonus for a new business checking account funded<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":1,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","footnotes":""},"categories":[69,54],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4485","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bank-bonuses","category-credit-cards"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4485","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4485"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4485\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7034,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4485\/revisions\/7034"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4485"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4485"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4485"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
