Best Posts Last Week: New Premium Card, Bonus Waiting Clauses, $10 Amazon Bonus & More

Last week finally saw the arrival of Bank of America’s new Premium Rewards credit card. It comes with a 50,000 point sign up bonus and a $100 annual travel credit (based on a calendar year), definitely worth considering as it only has a $95 annual fee. Citi are also considering some more changes to the Citi Prestige card to remain competitive and the 5% rotating categories for Q4 are now available for enrollment.

American Express have added a clause stating you might have to wait up to 12 weeks for the rewards on SPG, Hilton & Delta cards. NRA released a card offering 5% cash back on all gas and sporting goods purchases and Chase is now showing United cards under ‘Selected For You’ offers, bypassing 5/24.

We updated our best bank bonus page for September, it includes new bonuses added last week as well. Wells Fargo has a $300 in branch business checking offer, Citi has a personal offer for up to $500 and a Business offer for $500 as well. Discover has also extended the $150/$200 savings bonus. Don put together a great new resource page collating data points for when bank account bonuses post.

We added a lot of good deals last week. Amazon is offering a bonus $10 when you send a $50 gift card via text. Groupon is offering 20% cash back at Starbucks. Seated is an app that offers a $15 gift card everytime you dine at select restaurants in select cities. I’d recommend having a read through all of the deals and posts we added to the site below.

As always a lot of the good deals have already expired, make sure to either follow us on Twitter, get instant notifications or get daily e-mail updates so you don’t miss any deals. If we missed any deals or you have an idea for a post, please let us know ([email protected] or [email protected]).
