Our Verdict
They offered the same in 2023, 2022, and similar offers in the past as well. We often see offers on these cards for 75,000 points, but don’t have the automatic Companion Pass component; you typically need 125,000/135,000 points to get the pass.
Note that the Companion Pass earned with this signup deal is valid through February 2025 whereas when you earn it through the traditional method it’s valid through the end of the following year (which potentially can be almost 2 years, when timed right). This offer will still be a nice, simple deal for a lot of people.
This offer is available via referral link as well (it might have to be a newly generated link) which sweetens the deal considerably if you have a partner who can refer you and get 20,000 points. No referrals in the comments.
