Chase Introducing New ChaseTravel.com Booking Portal And More Airport Lounges
Chase will be launching a new travel portal, first for all credit card customers and then for all of its bank customers. And they have eight airport lounges in the pipeline, whereas we previously only knew about six (and they’d only confirmed four). That and more according to an investor presentation.
Mastercard Introduces ‘Pay With Your Face’
Mastercard has launched a biometrics pilot to let consumers pay with the palm of their hand or with their face rather than swiping or tapping a credit card.
Capital One Launches New Partnership With Turo, Opens Travel Portal To More Cardmembers
Capital One is launching a partnership with carsharing platform Turo, and opening up use of its travel portal to more cardmembers.
American Airlines Airport Agents Will Soon Be Pitching Credit Cards
Gradually you should now begin to see not just flight attendants pitch credit card offers, but airports agents, too. They’re being onboarded into the program where they’re paid fees for card approvals. And they’re even being paid a bonus for joining the program.
New Air France KLM Credit Card Offer: 70,000 Point Bonus And Credit Towards Elite Status
The Bank of America-issued U.S. credit card for Air France KLM Flying Blue has an offer that’s better than any I’ve seen before. And it’s interesting for more than just the bonus miles. It opens up elite status and potentially first class awards, too.
Citibank Credit Card Rebates Available On All Cards, Stack With SimplyMiles
Citibank has a card-linked rebate program that’s like Amex Offers, but to date it’s only been available on a limited number of their cards. That’s changed. All of a sudden you’ll find it, for instance, on American Airlines cards and Citi Premier.
This is especially useful because Citi issues a number of Mastercards, which are eligible to be used with SimplyMiles, the American Airlines-Mastercard card-linked offers that award both AAdvantage miles and credit towards elite status.
[LIVE} Bilt Adds United Airlines, Cathay Pacific As Transfer Partners
Bilt Rewards, the first major loyalty program for people who rent their homes or apartments, is bringing on two new instant points transfer partners: United Airlines MileagePlus and Cathay Pacific’s Asia Miles. This gives Bilt transfers to two major U.S. airlines (2 of the big 3!).
Wow: 80,000 Miles And A $95 Credit For AAdvantage Business Card
I have nearly 10 million AAdvantage miles and I’m still tempted to re-consider having this card again in my wallet. As many readers know, base points from spend (so not the initial bonus, and not the additional points from spending in a bonus category) count towards AAdvantage elite status now.
The Backstory Behind The First Really Innovative Loyalty Program In Years
It turns out that redeeming points for a mortgage down payment may have been illegal and Bilt had to get explicit regulatory approval from the Federal Housing Administration. The specific sources of funds used for mortgage down payments are heavily regulated.
They got an explicit government no at first, before approval, and then they had to get landlords to sign on, and many were skeptical (more homeowners means fewer renters). And that was just the start, because they completely revamped their earning value proposition in the three months prior to launching last fall.
