Our Verdict
Not as good as the 10x/10% offer from last month, but online is a wide category, so still a nice deal. If I’m reading the fine print correctly, it’s 4x bonus + 1x regular earn.
I’ve only seen this sent out on American Airlines cards, but based on prior experience I’d guess it’s being sent out in a targeted fashion across various cards.
