The Offer
The Fidelity credit card sent out spend offers, I think this one via snailmail:
- Spend a certain amount and get bonus rewards on purchases beyond that amount.
The offer varies by the person. As an example: after you spend $850 you’ll get 20% bonus rewards (2.4% per dollar), up to $20 in total bonus rewards.
The Fine Print
- Spend between March 1 – April 30
Our Verdict
I think they are trying pushing up your spend, so whatever they expect you to spend, they’ll give you a bonus for spend above that. Given the card already earns 2%, and some people use it anyway, this offer might be useful to some people.
