New Amazon Gift Card Offer?

CivalV — Fri, 24 Jan 2020 04:24:20 GMT

Is anyone else seeing a new offer of $150 gift card upon approval of Amazon Prime Rewards Visa card pop up when checking out on Amazon.com? I am sure it is not targeted since it is backed by Chase but I am curious lol

.....and that's what it shows in their cc marketplace too ($70). So $150 is not normal? Is this still marketing or a good offer? eta: logged out

$150 is a great offer. I am still waiting for it. My top was $100 over Christmas. If you want the card, I would grab it before it flys away. They are targeted offers. Mine is at $70 currently.

Super odd. It’s the first time I received an offer like that. Normally it’s $70.

I see $150 too but there’s no way Chase would approve me with 2016 BK7. Not to mention all of my new accounts. I’m sure it’s just marketing.

As mentioned upthread, $150 is a great offer (subject to credit approval of course).

When I was approved for the Chase Amazon Prime Visa a couple years ago (before 5/24 was CC-wide), the running offer was $70.

Correct, it is a targeted Amazon marketing offer, not a pre-approved offer. So, if there's a presence of BK or over 5/24 it might not be fruitful.

I see it in my account. Funny thing is both Chase and Synchrony denied me last year when I was hoping to get a 5% Amazon card, before I learned about 5/24. I now have the Amex Amazon Biz card and have zero interest in this thing even though I agree $150 is a pretty good sub for an Amazon card.
