The Offer
Direct Link (make sure to select the Plus version)
The elusive public link for 50,000 bonus on the Southwest Plus personal credit card is back.
- Signup for the Southwest Plus card and get 50k bonus points after spending $2,000 within three months
The Fine Print
- $69 not waived the first year
Our Verdict
I’ve been waiting for this one to come as I’m past the two-year mark and can get this again.
This offer comes occasionally via public offer and more often via referral, but recently even the referrals stopped working. Great to see this back again, especially given the Chase is likely to start cracking down more on co-branded approvals – hopefully, they haven’t already.
Great time to lock up that companion pass if you haven’t already. You can also find the Premier card – which has a slightly higher $99 annual fee – at the above link with a 50k bonus. And the Premier business version can be found here with a 50k bonus as well.

I have referrals for the Southwest Premier card available! Spend 2,000 in the first 3 months and receive 50,000 points. Please email your name and email address to me at [email protected].
Or here’s the link if you don’t fee like waiting for an email: https://applynow.chase.com/FlexAppWeb/renderApp.do?SPID=FHV5&CELL=63GZ&MSC=1531086109
If you have to, you can start putting a lot of spend on her RR card for the 1point/$ bonus that will count toward CP.
Also, for any upcoming trips, check out rocketmiles RR points bookings as those points count for CP. I just booked a 4 night stay with a bonus 13k points. There were some crazy expensive hotels that would’ve given 40k points but just not worth it in this case for me.
Link is not working
Still working for me.
I applied for the SW Business card 10 days ago. Wasn’t instantly approved but told to expect response in the mail. Same thing happened with my SW Premier card application a couple of months ago for which I did receive the card after 3 weeks.
Should I apply for Plus now before 5/24 kicks in, or is it better to wait for the Business card application to process?
Hmm, I hear the dilemma. Maybe give it a few more days and hope the SW biz will process by then. Not sure.
It did process, and not successfully, I kind of got a chuckle out of the reasons for denial:
Insufficient business revenue (32K)
Already have maximum amount of credit that can be offered
Too many accounts with balances
Too many requests for new cards in past few months.
Seems like I’m not very popular with them. I wonder how my application for Plus will be received? 🙂
1) I closed my SW Plus card on Oct 2016 and received 50K bonus in Jan 2016. Would I be eligible for the 50K bonus if I applied for the SW Premier now?
2) Also, I have a Chase Ink card. What are my chances of getting a SW Premier Business card as well?
Correction: Above should read 2015
1) Yes
2) No obvious reasons for denial
Thanks DoC… Is it still true that If you apply for multiple Chase cards in one day, the hard inquiries will be combined??
I would like to apply for both the personal Plus and Premier card (Hello Companion Pass), but not sure if I should do so on the same day to increase approval chances.
My only other CC application in 2016 was for SPG Amex about 2 months ago.
Same situation here. Got SPG on 30th march.
Got Hyatt in Feb 28th. Freedom & Unied in Dec, Saphire in Jan.
Barclays cashforward,Choice,city atnt,city hilton & amex hilton in between Dec to Feb.
Wanted to stay down profile for sometime now, but 2 personal SW are reallt tempting 🙁
With serve and grocery stores gone, what is the easiest way to meet spend?

Plastiq allows you to use your credit cards to pay rent, bills, and loan payments. I use it to pay my student loans to help meet minimum spends. if you sign up using the referral link below, you won’t be charged a fee for your first $200.

Approved for this card. Lowered credit line hoping to help prevent denial since I just got approved for another Chase card a week ago. Applied and got a pending message. I again did not call in but still got approved after less than a day after letting the pending process. I am way over 5/24.
Thanks Doc! Earlier today I was calling Chase about denial for my Ink card application and the rep made it sound like there’d be no way in hell Chase will be opening any cards for me any time soon….instant approval for the Plus. Really excited since I’ve already gotten Premier Business in Feb and have a pretty good chance of getting the companion pass now.
Anyone know if my wife can apply for this card, reference my southwest account number, and get the points without suspicion? I applied about 20 months ago for the card, cancelled 10 months ago, and was waiting to cool down before applying again. Now if both my wife and I can apply this year, dump 100,000 points to my southwest account, we’d be pretty happy!
No, you cannot
