Update 12/29/20: Offer is now available via referral link as well. Hat tip to reader CharTech
Update 11/12/20: I’m seeing this offer again now incognito here; this time it’s a straight $7,500 spend requirement (not tiered). It’s not always pulling up, but you can probably get it with a few tries.

Our Verdict
Not as good as the 75,000 offer that was available via referral links earlier this year. Spend requirement is $2,500 less but that doesn’t really make up for the points difference. Because a bigger bonus was so recently offered we won’t add this to our list of the best credit card bonuses.
