Update 9/8/19: As readers point out in the comments, this does come with the extra 500 you normally get when using an “in flight” application like this.

Our Verdict
There is another very similar offer, the only difference is that the annual fee isn’t waived but you do get a companion certificate. Personally I’d prefer the $99 over the companion certificate, but if you’re able to make the certificate work for you then chances are that is a better offer. Previously with these in flight offers you’d get an additional 500 miles as well, but that doesn’t seem to be the case this time. This is most likely the best credit card offer with no minimum spend requirement.
If you have any questions about Barclays credit cards, I’d recommend reading this post first. We will be adding this offer to our list of the best credit card bonuses.
