Fidelity Visa (2% Back Card) $150 Sign Up Bonus Publicly Available
The Offer
- Receive a sign up bonus of $150 when you spend $1,500 or more within the first 90 days on the Fidelity Visa card.
- Offer valid through June 30, 2019.
Card Details
- No annual fee
- Card earns 2% cash back on all purchases
- 1% foreign transaction fee
- This Bonus Cash offer is available only to new Fidelity Rewards Accounts booked through this special offer. Existing and previous Fidelity Rewards card members are not eligible for this offer
- Card issued by Elan services (subsidiary of U.S. bank)
Our Verdict
The card often doesn’t have any bonus, or has a bonus of $50 or $100; I don’t think we’ve ever seen a publicly available $150 bonus before (even when it was issued by FIA card services). There is a targeted offer of $300 out there currently, and there’s also a public $100 offer with a lower $1,000 spend requirement.
This is a pretty good deal if you need a card that has a high base spend, if you already have one of those (or don’t need one because you’re spend just goes to minimum spend requirements) then there are better cash sign up bonuses out there. You can read our full review of this card here.
Keep in mind you also need to open an eligible Fidelity account as well (cash management is best option if you don’t want to invest with Fidelity).
Big thanks to reader YL for sharing this

$150 not worth a card that will go straight into the sock drawer. I only have an HSA with them so if I ever get targeted for $300 I just might pull the trigger.
I agree. This is precisely the same reason why I’m not signing up for any of the Chase freedom cards until they target me with a $300 sign-up bonus.
What card do you have that gives you better than 2% on all purchases? This seems even better than the Citi Double Cash Back card to me, since it looks like you get the 2% immediately from each purchase rather than split up between when you make a purchase and when you make a card payment which seems annoying for redeeming.
If I’m not meeting MSRs or category bonus spend I’d much rather just put everything on a BBP.
What does BBP stand for? Nothing comes up when I google it.

I have a Citi DC and this card as well (got a targeted letter for $150 bonus). Problem with the Fidelity card is that it has a minimum $50 redemption rate and the Citi DC has a $25 minimum redemption rate. I like to apply my cash back as soon as possible to maximize monthly investments, the Fidelity $50 minimum redemption rate is a deal breaker and I’ll continue to use my Citi DC for non >2% purchases.
1- Discover Miles 3%
2- Alliant 3% first year then 2.5%
There are few more out there, 2% cash back is not worth the hard pull and adding another account to your CB.
I don’t fly much so don’t need the miles. Alliant has an annual fee. The highest rate available for no-annual-fee flat rate cash-back cards is 2%, that’s all I was getting at.
yeah this is pretty bad if you have cards that cover your other categories
Would this count as a relationship with US Bank?
No. In fact, US Bank has put Elan up for sale, so the rather distant association between the two institutions will soon end completely.
$1500 spend, lol.
You said it, my brother!
Guess there really aren’t such things as “impulse applies” when it comes to cards. As this otherwise does not seem interesting beyond _THEIR_ and only their sign-up bonus appearing bigger than usual.
how stringent are they on opening accounts/approval for card?
I’ve received an email offer today from the fidelity card: buy costco gold membership, receive $40 credit and $20 costco gift card, if sign up for auto renewal.
I just got that as well. I’ll post shortly.
Bottom of Barrell card imo, by how hard is it to get approved for elan financial card when youre lol / 24?
I’m LOLOLOL/24 and got approved instantly.
Post mentions card issued by subsidiary of U.S. Bank, but no clarification on freezing ARS and IDA or not? Or if the related post is even still current? https://www.doctorofcredit.com/two-credit-bureaus-you-should-freeze-before-you-apply-for-a-u-s-bank-credit-card/
I think the general consensus is that it’s not necessary to freeze those anymore.
I have a fidelity investment account. I would not like to connect the credit card with it. Can I open a new Fidelity Cash Management account and then connect the CC to it?
So, I assume the steps will be
#1. Open Cash Management A/C: https://www.fidelity.com/cash-management/fidelity-cash-management-account/overview
#2. Apply for credit card: https://www.fidelity.com/go/rewards-visa-signature-card-1501
Just wanted to make sure….Looks like their checking account is maintenance free i.e. NO monthly fee or NO minimum balance (plus FREE checks!!).
That looks good

did it give you a reason or just to wait for letter?
Hi Chuck,
Phone representative was able to pull $150 back after $500 spend when I asked for current offers available. My application pending, but here’s the contact numbers from representatives.
Fidelity Visa Application Line : 888 385 0272
Fidelity Visa Application Status : 800 364 9648
Anyone that applied what bureau did they pull?
Recently applied and approved. Hard pull from Transunion.
I applied and am yet to receive any message in my gmail about my application, is that a normal thing?, pls
I recently got approved with 300 bonus. How strict is fidelity with 90 day rule for their bonus?
Anyome know if I’m banned from US bank, can I get the Fido card from Elan?
REAL PROBLEM. Fidelity Rewards 5,000 points = $25 cash back NOT 5,000 = $50 like others so 2% points really translate to 1%. SCAM ..
It’s $50 cash when redeemed to your Fidelity account.
The offer is still valid when applied over the phone. It takes around 15 minutes and a lot of patience to listen to all the disclosures, but the $150 bonus for $1,500 spend is mentioned.
I’m still seeing it online as well.
