Our Verdict
We’ve never seen a sign up bonus on this card, if Barclays wants to get any traction on this card they will need to add one. You basically get 3x miles per $1 spent if you spend $25,000 (plus the sign up bonus), the problem is that this card does have transfer partners but it’s not a 1:1 rate (either 1.4:1 or 1.7:1). Fingers crossed we see a public sign up bonus on this card at some stage, but I’m hoping for more than 25,000 points.
