Update 5/5/20: Variation of this offer has been sent out. This time it requires $2,000 in total spend. Still better off with the Premier offer. Hat tip to echen1024

Our Verdict
Previous best bonus has 20,000 points. Although a higher bonus was available in branch. Card isn’t really worth considering in my opinion because if you get this card you’ll be excluded from getting the Preferred/Premier/Prestige for 24+ months and those cards usually have much bigger sign up bonuses. For example you can get 65,000 points on the Premier currently.
