Best Current Credit Card Sign Up Bonuses & Offers For March, 2020
A list of the best current credit card sign up bonuses & offers for March, 2020. We update this page on a daily basis with any new deals and include all bonuses (we don’t use any credit card affiliate links so we can remain unbiased unlike other sites).
Given how popular our best bank account bonus page is, I thought I’d try my hand at something similar for credit card bonuses. This page will be updated regularly, so feel free to bookmark it and share it on social media/forums (I’ll also add it to the header under credit cards to make it easily accessible). Keep in mind we do not use credit card affiliate links, so this is an unbiased list.
A few final thoughts before we get to this list:
- There will be a random amount of entries on this list at any one time dependent on how many cards I currently think are worth signing up for.
- I’ll be taking into account whether a bonus is at it’s highest level ever or not (mostly because I don’t think an offer is truly the best if it regularly goes up to a higher level or I suspect it’ll go to a higher level in the near future).
- I won’t be taking into account special application rules (e.g Chase 5/24 rule or American Express once per lifetime rule), but I will mention them clearly on the individual review pages.
- If there is a card that is popular and I haven’t included, I’ll put it under “Not On The List” and explain my reasons why.
Keep in mind that having a clear goal will help you decide what the best cards for you are! If you don’t want to travel and just want to earn cash back, then the best card for you will be different than somebody that wants to fly first class to Paris and stay in 5 star accommodation.

Personal Cards
These cards are listed in order from absolute best to best (e.g the better cards are at the top).
U.S. Bank Altitude Reserve – 50,000 Points
Card has always offered the same bonus, but it’s still worth up to $750 so should be seriously considered. The bonus did actually get better when they added real time rewards meaning you didn’t need to use the U.S. bank travel portal to get 1.5¢ in value.
Wells Fargo Propel World 40,000 Point Bonus
This is really so high because you need to call in/go to a branch to get this offer and we suspect it will be removed completely at some stage. That being said we’ve thought that for a long time now, so it’s entirely possible that won’t be the case. Points are worth 1¢ each so this bonus is worth $400 + $100 in reimbursements.
Chase Southwest – 75,000 Points
All three personal cards (Plus, Premier, Priority) get 75,000 points with $5,000 in spend within 6 months. Annual fee not waived the first year; the Plus card has the lowest annual fee of $69.
Citi Premier – 60,000 Points Or 65,000
$95 annual fee isn’t waived on this one, but it’s still a pretty good offer. Can be transferred to travel partners or used for up to $750 in air travel. You can get an additional 5,000 points by applying in branch.
Bank of America Premium Rewards 50,000 Points + $100 Travel Credit
Link to our review of this card
Card comes with a 50,000 point sign up bonus worth $500 towards statement credit. In addition you get a $100 travel credit each calendar year, downside is that this can only be used on domestic originated flights (not sure how or if this is actually enforced yet) and a $95 annual fee.
Chase Sapphire Preferred 60,000 Points, Annual Fee Not Waived
Standard offer on this card is 50,000 points with the $95 annual fee waived. This is an extra 10,000 points but without the annual fee waived. The extra points are much more attractive due to the flexible point transfers and the fact that points are worth 1.25¢ each when redeeming through the Chase travel portal. You can also get referred and person referring you will get an extra 15,000 points.
Chase IHG Premier 140,000 Points
By far the largest offer we’ve seen on this card before. Keep in mind the annual fee is not waived. I’d also familiarize yourself with the IHG program first so you’re aware of how much 140,000 points will actually get you.
Bank of America Alaska 40,000 Miles + $100
Previous best on this bonus has been 40,000 miles or 30,000 miles + $100. Really strong offer if you highly value Alaska miles.
Chase United 60,000 Miles Offer
Not as big as previous 65,000 offers but only requires $3,000 in spend instead of $10,000. Get an additional 2,500 miles by applying with an in flight code
Barclays Aviator 60,000 Miles + Companion Ticket
This comes with the companion ticket but without the annual fee waived, deal is slightly better when it’s without the companion ticket but with the annual fee waived but still worth doing.
Barclays Hawaiian Airlines 60,000 Miles
Annual fee is waived as well.
Lafayette Federal Credit Union Mastercard – $600 or $650 In Flights – MD, D.C., VA
50,000 points after $5,000 in spend. Worth $600 in gift cards or $650 in flights
BBVA Select – $500 Cash Bonus – AL, FL, TX, AZ, CO, CA, NM
Requires $4,000 in spend. A lot of people are trying to focus on cash sign up bonus at the moment.
U.S. Bank Radisson Rewards 120,000 Points
Radisson has some great European properties that are priced affordably. This is the highest we’ve ever seen this bonus.
Capital One Savor $300 Cash Bonus – $95 Annual Fee Waived
Link to our review of this offer
Card comes with a $300 cash bonus. $95 annual fee is waived the first year. At launch the offer was $500, so might not be worth getting until bonus goes up.
Star Trek – $300 Cash Bonus – $39 Annual Fee
Requires $2,000 in spend and the annual fee is not waived the first year.
Discover it – $50 + Double Cash Back
Get bonus here | Read our review.
The sign up bonus on this card is low ($50 when you use a referral) but the real bonus is that after the first year you get your cash back doubled for that year (not including the $50 referral bonus). This card has 5% rotating categories (up to $1,500 in spend per quarter), this means you’ll get 10% cash back on those categories. This card really only makes sense if you’ll be able to max out those categories at least some of the time.
Ridgewood Savings Bank $500 Bonus – NY & CT
Nice big bonus, spend of requirement of $5,000 is required.
Discover it Miles $100
Offer only available via a referral. The nice thing about this card is cash back earned is double the first year (unfortunately the sign up bonus doesn’t double), meaning this card earns 3% cash back on all purchases during that first year.
Chase Freedom/Chase Freedom Unlimited $200 Bonuses
5/24 does apply to this card, I’d recommend getting the higher value Chase bonuses first. Standard bonus on these cards is $150, so this is only slightly higher than normal. Still might be worth doing for people under 5/24 that have already done other Chase bonuses and looking for something with a low minimum spend requirement.
Citi Double Cash $100 Bonus – In Branch
Normally we don’t see any sign up bonus on the Citi Double Cash, so this is better than normal. In addition you can transfer cash rewards from this card to Citi travel partners if you have a Prestige/Premier from Citi.
Business Card Bonuses
U.S. Bank Leverage Business Card – $750
Requires $7,500 in spend, but still a nice big cash sign up bonus.
Wells Fargo Business Platinum – $500
Nice and simple $500 bonus for $5,000 in spend. Deal becomes even better when you pair it with a new Wells Fargo business checking bonus of $500 or $1,000.
Chase Ink Business Preferred 80,000 Point Offer
We didn’t have this post listed for a long time and that’s because we’ve seen a bigger bonus of 100,000 points in the past. We were hopeful that would return, but at this stage that doesn’t look likely and it makes sense to grab this 80,000 offer instead.
Barclays Aviator Business 75,000 Mile Offer
Requires adding an employee card for 10,000 miles of the offer, but still a fantastic bonus even without that portion.
Chase Ink Cash – $500
Standard sign up bonus is only $300, it has been possible to get $500 by applying through a business relationship manager for some time but that won’t be available to everybody so this offer is useful. Keep in mind this card does not count towards your Chase 5/24 total, but the Chase 5/24 rule does apply.
Chase Ink Unlimited 50,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards Points
This is the standard bonus on this card, we’ve never seen a higher or lower bonus as far as I’m aware. Similar to the United card above this does not count towards your 5/24 status but the 5/24 rule does still apply to this card. As long as you already have another Chase UR earning card with an annual fee you can transfer these points to Chase’s travel partners.
Bank of America Cash Rewards – $500
Require $5,000 spend. Previously this was targeted, but there’s now a public signup link. Mainly useful for the signup bonus.
Citi American Airlines 75,000 Mile Offer
Previously it’s been possible to get a lower mile bonus that also had a statement credit as you were able to then match it to a higher mile offer and get the best of both worlds. Unfortunately Citi doesn’t let you do those matches anymore, because of that this offer is now the best option available.
Chase Southwest Business Performance 100,000 Points
Requires a massive $25,000 in spend but the points from that spend and the sign up bonus are enough to get a companion pass.
Chase United Business 100,000 Miles
This is a new card compared to the previous Explorer. Minimum spend requirement is only $10,000 vs the $25,000 we saw on the Explorer before. Get an additional 2,500 miles by applying with an in flight code.
PNC BusinessOptions $750 Bonus – AL, DC, DE, FL, GA, IL, IN, KY, MD, MI, MO, NC, NJ, NY, OH, PA, SC, VA, WI and WV
Nice big bonus, downside is that it requires spending $25,000 or more in the first three billing cycles.
Barclays Hawaiian Business 70,000 Miles
Requires adding an employee to get the full bonus, but a great bonus if you value Hawaiian miles highly.
Barclays JetBlue 60,000 Point Bonus
Requires adding an employee card for the full 60,000 point bonus.
American Express Blue Business Cash $500 Bonus
Deal requires $15,000 in total spending for the full bonus, but the upside is that this card earns 2% cash back on up to $50,000 annually.
VantageWest $300 Bonus + 5% Categories – AZ Only
This also requires opening a checking account. Bonus is worth doing because the card earns 5% cash back in rotating categories as well.
AmaZing Business Credit Card – $300/$500/$1,000 TX, CA, CO
Really only worth doing the $500/$1,000 deals and even then it might just be best to wait for the $1,000 offer to return if your state is only offering $500 currently.
American Express Amazon Prime Business Card – $100 Statement Credit + $125 Amazon Giftcard
Normally the bonus is only the $125 gift card, but now they are offering a $100 statement credit as well now.
YMMV/Targeted Offers
We’ve decided to create a new section for YMMV or targeted offers. These are all great offers, but they either require being targeted or have some other restriction in place. We haven’t listed offers that are only available in certain states, those will still be listed above
American Express Platinum 100,000 Point Offer
Read our review of this offer | Another way to get this offer
Not everybody is able to get this offer to show, but if you are then it’s a great offer. Just keep in mind it does have a massive $550 annual fee, but for that you get good lounge access, $200 in airline incidentals per calendar year (so you can get it twice and only pay the annual fee once) and $200 in Uber credits per card member year as well. Obviously not for everybody, but if you can maximize those airline incidentals then this is a really great offer. There is also an upgrade offer of 60,000 points without the lifetime language, unfortunately that is targeted.
AmEx EveryDay 25,000 Points + 0% APY For 15 Months With $0 BT Fee
Standard bonus is 10,000 points. We’ve seen the 25,000 point offer via incognito mode for some time but the 0% APY + $0 BT fee offer is new. Could be using for floating money to put into a high yield savings account.
Various American Express Delta Offers – No Lifetime Language
It’s currently possible to get up to 75,000 miles and up to $200 in statement credits on the American Express Delta co-branded cards. These offers don’t have the lifetime language present, meaning you’re eligible for the bonus even if you’ve had that specific card before.
American Express Business Gold 35,000 Point Offer – No Lifetime Language
Relatively weak offer, really only worth considering due to the fact that it has no lifetime language.

Final Thoughts
I’m looking forward to the comments on this one, what do you think I’ve gotten wrong? What should be higher and what should be lower? What missed out and what should be removed from the list all together?

Thanks, great article with a helpful round-up. Just a small clarification: the Citi Prestige has a $250 airline credit, not a $300 travel credit.
nice job! I’ve been hopeful that you would compile an aggregate list of CCs like this because I think this site does a better job of giving an honest and succinct viewpoint then your blog competitors
No mention of Starwood and Marriott cards that are now eligible to be combined?Some really sweet possibilities there.
SPG is under YMMV, I guess the 80k Marriott offer is OK but nothing that remarkable IMO.
Curios when Marriott will offer more than 80K and/or waive the AF again?
Now it is 75K and AF waived. Lot of us posted our referral links.
I still have the 10x Marriott offer on first $12k. Surprised it wasn’t mentioned
I’m not sure I agree with your take on Sky Miles. Granted, they’re clearly the least valuable of the legacies, but Pay With Miles provides a floor that gives a minimum value of $500/$700+ on some of those Delta cards. The increased offers going on make them must-looks if you ask me.
A lot of people, myself included, soured on Delta with their unannounced devaluations and generally shady practices when it comes to their frequent flier program. That being said, Delta generally gets good reviews for their service and they have a ton of non-stops from ATL, CVG, DTW, LAX, MSP, JFK, LGA, and SLC.
In my opinion the Delta Gold Personal card should not be applied for unless you are targeted for the 75k offer. However, the Delta Platinum Personal probably deserves a spot above the IHG card on your list and I think both versions of the Business card deserve spots at the bottom of your list (below SWRR).
My thinking with the current skymiles offers is that they will increase in the short term (as evidenced by the near constant 50k/70k offers) and the fact that there is no real need to hold these miles. If you have short term plans for Delta miles it can make sense, but I expect increase offers for both cards in the short term and also devaluation of Delta miles in the short-medium term. Annual fee on the Platinum card doesn’t help it’s cause either, maybe offset by the MQM for some people?
Again, happy to argue these points and update list if I am in the minority/wrong.
I guess the fear of increased offers is somewhat fair, but do you really see these cards hitting a six figure sign up bonus? That seems like the next step for Amex (100k DL Plat) to take with these if they really want to make a splash and drive sign ups, but I just don’t see them parting with such a huge crop of miles. My understanding is that the Delta card portfolio is relatively successful and the addition of card spend to waive the MQD requirement has probably helped them stave off deserters.
In summation, I personally don’t see how the Delta Personal Platinum (70k miles/effective $95 fee first year with statement credit) can be left off your list of best personal sign up bonuses when the US Bank Amex is on there.
I thought on the Amex Business Plat the total spend was $15k in total, not 10k? Although it would be great if it were! Thanks for compiling this list!
Haha, misread this!
Looks good! Pretty sure the Amex Platinum Business is $15,000 total. $5,000 first 50k points, $10,000 for second 50k set.
Fixed this!
CFU higher than CSR. Wowza
Double bonus and not a good time for CSR, you disagree?
Under “Personal Cards” I think you meant to write “best to worst” instead of “best to best”.
No, I meant best to best haha. All of these offers are good!
I never saw the 100k/125k AmEx Hilton links. Do you have those?
They aren’t available, were leaked for a few hrs and then died.
GASP! This improves my life greatly. TY!!!!
Merrill Lynch MERRILL+ Visa
Dad’s application submitted about an hour ago and received a call from their consideration line 866-224-7803, was approved instantly over the phone. 5K credit line. Like mine, he has Experian frozen and asked them to pull from Trans Union instead, 745 on trans Union via Credit Karma. It appears that 5K is the lowest credit line but it is totally fine because only the sign up bonus matters.
It looks to me that Merril Lynch is very aggressive on getting ppl using their credit card, therefore approving without even mentioning on short credit history or number of hard inquiries in report. Funny thing is that my Dad previously did not even get approved for BofA’s cash reward credit card.
typo: reconsideration line
Newbie here so i apologize in advance if this is a dumb question, but I’ve been seeing a lot of ppl saying they’ve frozen their accounts. I assume it’s because that score is lower than the others? So i guess I have 3 questions: Does this strategy work with all banks? What exactly do you give for the reason it’s frozen when you talk to the recon line? Is it only Experian this strategy works for or can i use it for my lowest score which is equifax? Thanks for any insight…
No love for Spark Cash? $500 cash after $4500 in spend….better spend then the amex $500 bonus plus 2% on everything.
Pays out immediately too – before the statement even closes!
They pull all three bureaus, I was considering all them as inquiries are combined AFAIK.
And most likely to deny you anyway.
This is what keeps me away from Capital One.
I am leaning more toward the CSP if I can get a Chase in branch preapproval vs CSR. Adjusting the reward vs AF and not having to game the $300.00 travel credits when I will not be traveling just makes more sense to me. 7/12 Currently. One new business card on top of that which has not had time to hit the credit bureaus if it does.
The problem is I do not see enough sizzle in anything out there to drool about except the CSP or CSR. At the rate I am going, I may be a one year wonder as very little pumps my juices for 2017 in terms of new credit cards or bank accounts.
You should still be able to get matched to the 70k in branch offer for the Ink Plus.
You sure? Card isn’t available officially anymore in branch so not sure they would still match.
WC: I think you did a great job breaking this down. Thanks! 🙂
Thanks, Jan!
