Chase Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier and Priority Cards – Up to 90,000 Points Bonus
Heads up, deal hunters: Chase has raised the welcome offers on two of its Southwest Rapid Rewards cards for a limited time. The mid-tier Premier card pays 85,000 Rapid Rewards points after $2,000 of spending in the first three months, while the top-tier Priority card pays 90,000 points after $3,000 in the same window.
How you earn it: Priority card: 90,000 Rapid Rewards points after $3,000 of spending in the first 3 months; Premier card: 85,000 Rapid Rewards points after $2,000 of spending in the first 3 months; Both cards include a free first checked bag and yearly anniversary points (7,500 on Priority, 6,000 on Premier); No foreign transaction fees on either card. The points post once the spending requirement is met in the first three months.
Who’s it for? Travelers who fly Southwest regularly and can put the required spending on the card in three months without stretching. The math only works if you will actually use the points and the checked-bag perk — otherwise the annual fee eats the value.
No promo code needed — just apply through Chase’s Southwest cards page during the promotional period and meet the spending requirement. This post covers Premier and Priority only: the lower Plus tier’s 80,000-point offer is already covered in an earlier post.
