Our Verdict
Normal bonus is 50,000 miles, but we’ve seen a bonus of 60,000 miles before. I personally think the 60,000 mile bonus was better because it required $5,000 in total spend in instead of $20,000. This deal is basically spend $15,000 more for 15,000 miles more or an extra 1 mile per $1 spent, not really that competitive unless you really value Lufthansa miles highly. Because of that I won’t be adding this to our list of the best credit card bonuses. If you’re going to apply for this card then I’d also recommend reading our post on things you should know about Barclays before applying.
