  1. Do this now:<\/strong> Link your Delta SkyMiles and Starbucks accounts<\/a> for 500 SkyMiles and 150 stars after making a purchase with Starbucks before December 31, and then ignore all the fluff pieces you\u2019ll see about the partnership in the next week; other than linking there\u2019s nothing here worth your mental bandwidth.<\/li>\n
  2. The American Express Business Gold 130,000 Membership Rewards sign-up bonus after $10,000 in spend in three months is now available via referral<\/a>. As usual with American Express, to find the best offers:\n

    \u2013 Try multiple browsers
    \u2013 Connect to a VPN
    \u2013 Check mobile and desktop
    \u2013 Check with incognito
    \u2013 Check logged out and logged in<\/p>\n

    And if it wasn\u2019t a referral offer, you should also try arriving at the bonus landing page by searching for \u201cAmerican Express Business Gold\u201d on several different search engines and clicking the first link.<\/p>\n

    The current best referral offer I know of gives 30,000 Membership Rewards and an additional 4x on travel and transit for three months on up to $20,000 in spend for the referrer, which potentially makes this offer a total of 110,000 additional Membership Rewards for the referrer on top of 130,000 Membership Rewards for the referred (!).<\/li>\n

  3. US Bank has a $500 bonus for a new personal checking account<\/a> using promo code 2022OCT<\/em>, provided you haven\u2019t had a personal checking account at US Bank in the last two years or received a US Bank banking bonus in the same timeframe. The requirements:\n

    \u2013 Fund the account with $25
    \u2013 Direct deposit at least $6,000 twice (see     The Daily Churn for ideas<\/a> on fake direct deposits)
    \u2013 Enroll in online banking<\/p>\n

    If you\u2019re not in US Bank\u2019s footprint, open a brokerage account with them and you\u2019ll then be eligible for a checking account and bonus. (Thanks to DoC<\/a>)<\/li>\n

  4. Check your Chase offers<\/a> for 10% back on Southwest purchases, up to a total of $50 back. This is reportedly available even on Chase co-branded Southwest cards<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
