Eligible Southwest Credit Cards
Southwest notes that “any Rapid Rewards® Credit Card” is eligible for this promotion. So, all 7 Southwest credit cards issued by Chase are eligible.
Our Take
After a recent devaluation, Southwest Rapid Rewards points are currently worth between 1.3 and 1.5 cents per point. That means you're getting between 65 and 75 cents in value per $1 you spend on Southwest purchases today. But, what keeps this from being an earth-shattering deal is the $100 spending limit.
Still, this offer is a great way to earn a nice chunk of Rapid Rewards points — up to 5,000 to be exact. And since these bonus points count towards the Companion Pass, it makes the deal even better for those pursuing it. If you're an eligible cardholder, don't forget to take advantage of this great deal today!
