Our Verdict
If you joined the waitlist you’ll get an extra 5,000/10,000 miles on sign up. Cardless only lets you have one Cardless card currently, don’t think either offer is particularly attractive given the high annual fee on the $249 card and the smaller bonus on the $99 card. Might be a use case for some people if you can take advantage of the lifemiles+ subscription.
