One feature of the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card is that is comes with an annual anniversary bonus of 10k Capital One Miles. This is pretty incredible since the Venture X has a $395 annual fee and already yields a $300 annual credit in the Capital One Travel Portal. The 10k mile anniversary bonus is worth, at minimum, $100 in the Capital One portal, but could be transferred into any partner program and potentially used in their unique award charts. Let’s take a look at how it works.
The worst case scenario in year 2 of card membership is receiving $400 worth of travel credits in the Capital One travel portal on a $395 fee. Not too shabby!
When does the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card 10k miles anniversary bonus post?
I got my card in the beginning November of 2021 and I received my anniversary bonus in mid December of 2022. My first year would have completed around November 10th, so this is roughly 58 weeks after getting the card. This year, 2023, I received the credit roughly 52 weeks after my last credit.
