Southwest Rapid Rewards Performance Business Card

Increased Southwest Credit Card Offers

There are increased Southwest credit card offers on the three personal credit cards. All three cards can get you up to 75,000 miles upon approval. The offers are now showing up via public links when they were available via referral links earlier this week. This is the perfect time to get your Companion Pass and lock it in for almost 2 years as well. Here are the details for each card.

These Offers May Have Ended Or Changed

These offers are ending sometime Monday February 10th so be sure to grab one during these final days if you were interested.

Need to Know

Here are some facts about the cards you should know:

  • Southwest points are often worth 1.5 cents each towards airfare. This increased offer is like getting an extra $150 in value.
  • Points earned from this offer DO COUNT towards the Southwest Companion Pass.
  • These cards are known to be subject to Chase’s 5/24 rule.
  • Eligibility

    These products are not available to either:

    • (i) current Cardmembers of any Southwest Rapids Rewards® Credit Card, or
    • (ii) previous Cardmembers of any Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Card who received a new Cardmember bonus within the last 24 months. This does not apply to Cardmembers of the Southwest Rapid Rewards Business Card and Employee Credit Card products.

Final Thoughts

These increased Southwest credit card offers are about as good as it gets for the Southwest personal cards.  I can remember 60,000 in the past but I don’t remember it getting as 75,000 in the past but I could be forgetting something.

This is also perfect for the Southwest Companion Pass since it gets you most of the way to the 125,000 Rapid Rewards points needed.  You could get the rest of the points needed by grabbing the Southwest Performance Business Card that comes with some nice perks.  Or you could use the Southwest shopping portal and dining program as well as regular spend to bridge the gap if you don’t have access to business cards.

Whether you are going for the Companion Pass or not this is now the most valuable Chase personal offer out there.

  1. any advice on the timing between applying for a personal version and a business version? Can you apply same day, or do you recommend spacing between applications?

    • I would space them out a bit. You used to be able to do same day in the past but Chase seems to be a little sensitive about it these days. Maybe space them out by a month or so.

  2. I applied and was rejected for a Southwest business card back in November 2019. Is it too early to apply again? The income for my business has increased since November. I am 3/24 and it’s been more than 24 months since I got a Southwest bonus.

    • You can always change again – what did they say was the reason that you were not approved? I am not sure if enough would have changed in 2 months.

    • Typically you should apply for a business card first, reduce your credit limit, wait 30+ days, then apply for personal. But since there are elevated personal offers, just do the opposite.

  3. Have you heard of Chase matching increased offers? My wife just recently opened Priority just before this offer came out, could she get matched to the higher offer?

        • he seemed pretty confident but i guess its still a bit of a risk. i also sent in a message to chase. i figure it would be good to get something in writing as well. ill advise what’s said once i get a response back

    • No unfortunately those terms were changed a few years ago. It needs to be 1 personal card and 1 business card now. They have a Southwest family rule now.
