At the end of the month a lot of deals and offers usually expire, I thought it would be helpful to give people a gentle reminder about a few offers that are due to expire at the end of this month.
Free Points
Here is a nice, quick and easy 1,000 Virgin America miles. These will become Alaska miles at some point in the future so worth grabbing if you have no need for Virgin miles.
- 500 Free Virgin American Miles For Signing Up For Virgin Sports E-mails
- 500 Virgin America Points For Opting Into Virgin Hotels Newsletter
- 5,000 Free Royal Air Maroc Miles (Free Flight Or Possibly Avios) For Creating A Family Account
- 250 FlexPerks Points For Visiting FlexPerks Promo Site
Bank Bonuses
- TIAA Direct $150 Checking Bonus – Nationwide. Doubt this will be extended (first time it’s been offered in awhile) nice and easy bonus and it’s available nationwide so I’d recommend this one if you haven’t done it already.
- Santander $150 Checking Bonus – Available Nationwide. One of our most popular and recommended bank account bonuses. This is usually extended, but grab it now if you’re interested.
- M&T Bank $150 Checking Bonus – Available Online [AZ, CT, DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA, VA, WV]. This bonus comes and goes quite a bit.
- [NYC only] Astoria Bank $250/$300 Checking Account Promotion. Often extended as well, but grab it now if you’re in NYC as it’s another of the best bonuses available.
- Fifth Third $200 Checking Bonus, Available Online [FL, GA, IL, IN, KY, MI, MO, NC, OH, PA, TN, WV]. This one is basically always extended, so not a huge risk of it disappearing.
- [IL only] Proviso Community Bank $100 Checking Bonus With Cubs & White Sox Checking Account. Not really worth considering, but it is expiring.
Credit Cards
- Max out your Q3 rotating categories. Not long left for Q3.
- Enroll in Q4 rotating categories. Make sure you’ve enrolled if you haven’t already.
Manufactured Spending
- Plastiq: Pay Mortgage or Rent with Mastercard with Just 1.75% Fee. This will go back up to 2.5% on the 30th, still time to schedule some payments.
Let us know if there are any other deals/offers expiring at the end of September and we’ll add them to this post. If people find this helpful I’ll do this next month as well!
I think the plastiq 1.75% promo expires so if you got the Barclay Arrival 50k bonus, great way to hit spend with mortgage or other payments. Requires 6 month recurring payment.
Thanks added this
Do we have any idea on when the Chase Sapphire Reserve card promotion expires? I don’t see it listed here. Does it mean the promotion will continue in October?
I don’t think anyone knows for sure
Will, might want to update the Fifth Third bonus page. As of now fine print says the coupon code has to be presented in person at a branch, or over the phone during account opening. So it won’t automatically track online. My recent DP supports this too.
Thanks, edited and fixed.
I find the concept for this post very useful – putting everything in one place that is expiring to see if we’ve done it is a great idea in my book. As always, thanks for making my life simpler and more profitable!
I have to agree with this, thanks a lot for your help!
Ok, I’ll do something similar next month then!
I will appreciate if someone can answer this question. I am flying on Virgin America to Hawaii next month
what is the best option to credit my miles , Virgin America or Singapore Airline?
Thanks
