Hey hey,
After a whirlwind start to March, traveling for fun, then family visits, a work trip, and then getting knocked out by the flu, I’m finally getting back into the swing of things.
This week’s newsletter is a mix of exciting travel tidbits, juicy offers, and news. Let’s dive in!
Elevated Sign Up Bonus Alert: Capitol One Venture
Right now, there are tons of credit cards offering elevated sign up bonuses (SUBs), but one, in particular, has me extra excited - the Capitol One Venture 🥳
💳 Here’s the deal:
- Earn 75,000 points + $250 travel credit after spending $4,000 in 3 months.
- $95 annual fee (compared to the Venture X’s $395 annual fee).
- Same 75k bonus as the Venture X, but at a fraction of the cost - this is a steal!
I’ve had the Capitol One Venture X for several years, but I jumped on this Venture offer because I missed it last time and had serious FOMO.
If you’re wondering: Can I hold both cards? The answer is YES.
If you’ve been eyeing a new travel card, this one is a slam dunk.
March Transfer Bonuses
There are some really great transfer bonuses going on right now, and one of my favorite card families takes the cake with three different offers!
