Our Verdict
Not a bad deal, credit card funding isn’t super high but it’s relatively easy to hit the bonus requirements and keep account fee free. It’s only a good deal if it’s a soft credit pull. Unfortunately we do not know if it is so it’s impossible to recommend. If somebody does sign up, please let us know in the comments below.
