What this calculation assumes
  • You make the required purchases and the bonus is paid.
  • You pay the balance in full — any interest changes the outcome.
  • The required spend is ordinary planned spending, not extra cost.
  • Gift-card rates are the recorded redemption catalogue, rechecked at renewal.

Did this help you make a decision?

Can I get this?

This is a public offer.

Can I get this bonus if I have held a card before?

The bonus holding rule for this offer is unverified. Check the offer terms before applying.

What must I spend?

$4,000 within 90 days — about $1,333 per month. The terms on this page don't record when the clock starts or how long the bonus takes to arrive after you qualify — check the issuer terms for both.

Can I get the card?

$3,000 minimum credit limit — a lending commitment, not a reward fact.

$30,000 minimum annual income recorded.

Lending approval is separate from bonus eligibility: approval gets you the card, the conditions above get you the bonus.

How long is this available?

No recorded end date — this does not mean it never ends. Availability is rechecked against the issuer page.

Should I keep it after the first year?

Renewal costs $250 each year ($175 annual fee + $75 program fee) — first year was $174.

Second year pays 30,000 Velocity points if you still hold the card into year two. The recorded terms don't detail the exact second spend hurdle — check the issuer terms before counting on it.

Ongoing earn: 0.50x Velocity points per $1.

Keeping pays off only if you meet the second-year conditions and use the points and benefits enough to cover $250/yr.

Year-two points aren't dollar-valued here: the redemption catalogue may change before renewal, so recheck the rate then.
