Here’s the deal
When I first saw the email I thought maybe I had been targeted for a rich deal like we saw last fall: spend $5k, get 40k points; spend another $5k, get another 10k points. NOPE. This deal requires A LOT of spend, and earns just one bonus point per dollar up to $25k. The upside is that you have until the end of August to hit the spend threshold, but the bonus points basically amount to just 1 extra point per dollar spent.
It’s Tiered:
- First Tier earns 20k points after $20k spend
- Second Tier earns 5k poitns after an additional $5k spend
Where this could work…
If you have some purchases whereby you’d trigger the 50% bonus, i.e. over $5k a pop. This would mean that your total pull on $20k would be 50k points…$25k would earn 62.5k points….
