Woah… this is unexpected.

Remember last year when I raved about the best credit card offer we’ve seen? And I said it would probably never happen again? Because it was so freaking awesome?

Well, I’m an IDIOT. Because it’s back. And it’s literally exactly the same.

So strap in, folks.

Because as of today, the Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card is offering a new, limited-time $250 Capital One Travel credit ON TOP OF the ability to earn 75,000 bonus miles when you spend $4,000 in the first three months of account opening.

That’s right, folks. A credit card with a $95 annual fee is offering you not only 75,000 miles, but also $250 of cold, hard, travel credit. 🤘🏼

For me (and for many of you), that’s like $250 of cash. As long as you spend that much on travel in a year. Which, let’s be honest, you do.

The best part is that the travel credit will hit your account upon approval, meaning you get that sweet, sweet instant gratification. 👇

The credit is also super flexible since it can be used for hotels and flights booked through the Capital One travel portal.

When I signed up for the card last year, I used the credit to book some flights and hotels that were CHEAPER than other websites.

Oh… and did I mention there are 75,000 freaking Capital One Miles also included in the welcome offer??

That alone could easily be worth around $1,500. And I’ll show you why.

You could transfer those miles to an airline like Virgin Atlantic, which allows you to fly to London for as few as 6,000 miles one-way:

That’s like getting $250 and 13 flights between the U.S. and Europe… for a $95 card… I mean, wtf?

You could also transfer those points to an airline program like Cathay Pacific and fly from the West Coast to Asia for just 27,000 miles each way.

Example of a Cathay Pacific flight from Vancouver to Hong Kong for 27,000 miles

That means your welcome offer would be enough to book you a round-trip to Europe AND a round-trip to Asia… and you’d still have miles left over… and $250 of travel credit…

Look, folks…

When I saw this offer on the Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card last year, I personally signed up immediately because I thought it was so valuable, and was honestly surprised that such a crazy offer even existed.

My approval for the Venture Card

Offers like this don’t come around often, and I think everybody who wants in on the miles and points world should get this card.

The travel credit alone pays for a couple of years of the annual fee, and the amount of miles you get is just crazy for such a low-annual-fee card.

So go do it now and don’t live to regret it. 👇

Peace out,

Mike ✌️
