American Express plans to add several new benefits, service & rewards to premium cards in May. American Express has also been offering increased earning and redemption rates in other countries for Platinum cardholders so fingers crossed we see something similar. Chase is now requiring you to log in to apply for most business cards and making it more difficult to receive retention offers. Capital One is offering additional time to meet minimum spend requirements.
A number of nationwide bank bonuses were offered last week including $125 from HSBC direct, up to $175 from SoFi Money and a $100 bonus from Aspiration. Citizens Bank has also extended the $600 checking & savings bonus for those in CT, DE, MA, MI, NH, NJ, NY, OH, PA, RI, VT. Tastyworks has a 100 share brokerage bonus when you deposit $2,000+.
Amazon offers for 20% off when you use a single Discover or American Express point have both been extended. More people have been targeted for a similar Citi deal for $15 off $50+ when you use a single Citi point. Rakuten/eBates is offering a referral bonus of $30. Swagbucks has a $42 money maker when you sign up for LifeLock.
IRS is finally allowing people to add their bank information for the $1,200 stimulus direct deposit. Federal Reserve has temporarily lifted the 6 withdrawal limit on savings accounts. Venmo has increased person to person payment limits to $4,999.
