This is an email I got for the Prime Visa. $20 bonus is awarded after $100 of Spending.

I've never seen an incentive to add an AU. Is that common?

Discover has one going right now as well. I think I've also gotten it for U S. Bank card. Amex used to have some lucrative offers involving AUs.

I just checked and got the same offer. I guess my wife is going to be an AU.

Yes, I've had several. Basically the issuers expect that adding an AU will increase spend on the card (from the AU) and so want to encourage it.

That makes sense!

The Discover offer must be targeted. I've searched my app and email, but no offer.

I received the offer from Discover last week. $50 to add an AU after they make a purchase with their card. Doesn't specify an amount so a really good offer. Added DW to mine and was hoping she would get the same offer on hers eventually so I can be added to hers for same offer but nothing yet.
