The Offer
- Wescom Credit Union is offering a bonus of $500 after $2,500 in spend within the first three months on the Bruin Edge Visa card
Card Details
- No annual fee
- Card earns at the following rates:
- 5 points per $1 spent on select UCLA Purchases
- 1.5 points per $1 spent
Our Verdict
This is obviously a huge bonus by itself, but Wescom also has a $250 checking bonus and you can get an additional $250 when you qualify for a loan product. It’s not clear if you could effectively stack that with this $500 bonus and get a total of $1,000. Either way just this bonus by itself is a great deal and we will add it to the best credit card bonuses. Obviously we have no idea how strict they are on approvals or any of that other information so please share your experiences in the comments below.
Hat tip to Vanson

Can someone refer me? I’d appreciate it. [email protected]
Of course! Please check your inbox 🙂
is this card hard to get? and is there a referral bonus?
horrible process to get credit card, they want so many personal info and my last straw was my pay stub. That was a hard no.
I live and work in Montclair, just 30 miles east of LA, do I need referral to apply?
I believe you’re qualified since their site says “anyone who lives, works, worships or attend schools in Southern or Central California counties is eligible … ”
You don’t necessarily need a referral, which gives you up to additional $200 for a new checking account (on top of the $500 credit card spending bonus + 1.5% cashback), but it’s a good idea to go for this checking account offer as well because it’s available only for someone becoming a member for the first time. And signing up for the credit card forces you to become a member anyway.
If you’d like a referral with instructions for the combo bonus, you’re welcome to email me at gingerrootsoft-at-gmail-com 🙂
