No 0% intro, tiers, 12.99, 17.99 and 22.99. Interesting competition for quicksilver, if you have TD account. I am not interested in this now. Just putting it out there.
Decimal point in the wrong place, effective cash w/10% bonus redeeming into an Ameritrade account is 1.65%. (16.5% reawrds and I'd be all over it 
) Still pretty decent, and I do luv those $100 spend bonuses, that would be $110 redeemed to an Ameritrade account. I've actually had an Ameritrade account since the 90s, but very small now for several years. But I also had a Target Red card issued by TD Bank that I closed last Feb because of the toy store $200 CL, they told me if I closed it I could never get another account, not sure if they mean Target only or any card from TD Bank. I'll think about it.
EDIT: I tried credit pullls database to see what kind of score/criteria they approve, but no hits on either 'Ameritrade' or 'Client Rewards', so maybe this is a pretty recently introduced card? Also, here's some additional info from the Ameritrade page:
- If you open an account between June 1, 2015 and August 15, 2015, you are eligible to earn a one-time bonus offer of 10,000 Client Rewards bonus points if you spend $500 in total net purchasesusing your new TD Ameritrade Client Rewards Credit Card within 90 days of account opening date. The bonus points can then be redeemed for $100 cash back (or a variety of merchandise).
- This offer only applies to new TD Ameritrade Client Rewards Credit Card accounts opened between June 1, 2015 and August 15, 2015.
- For as long as the credit card account remains open and in good standing, points will not expire and there is no restriction to the number of points that may be earned.
The one thing I;m curious about is if you redeem points to an Ameritrade IRA account is it treated as a current year IRA contribution, like Fidelity Amex does. Guess I'll have to call to find that out.

Forgive me all, have minor broke foot, sleep not optimal (at all). 1.65% for the win.
