New Synchrony Cathay Pacific Card Details Now Live

Update 4/15/25: Card now live, sign up bonus is 38,000 miles.

In November the Synchrony Cathay Pacific card stopped taking new applicants. At the time it was unclear if Cathay Pacific was moving card issuers or Synchrony was refreshing the card. Details of the new card are now live and Synchrony will continue to be the issuing bank, but it’s not possible to apply. New card details are as follows:

$99 annual fee
Card earns at the following rates:
- Earn 3 per USD1 spent on all eligible Cathay Pacific and Hong Kong Express travel and in-flight purchases
- Earn 2 per USD1 spent on dining and eligible dining delivery services
- Earn 1 per USD1 spent on all purchases where Mastercard is accepted worldwide
Earn 10 Status Points for every USD5,000 in eligible purchases made each month up to a maximum of 100 Status Points per calendar year

No foreign transaction fees
10% redemption discount on hotel, car rental and experiences awards with Asia Miles
10% savings on Asia Miles Gift Miles and Mileage Transfer Fee transactions

Doesn’t seem to be a huge change when compared to the previous card, hopefully we see an increased sign up bonus when it launches.
