Guru’s Wrap-up
These are good offers for all three Southwest credit cards, especially with the lower spending requirement. However, you will only have about 88,000 points after you complete the spending, which will not be enough to earn the Companion Pass.
You need 135,000 Rapid Rewards points to earn the Southwest Companion Pass. Rapid Rewards Credit Cardmembers receive a boost of 10,000 Companion Pass qualifying points every year, so you just need 125,000.
The new bonus is now available through referrals as well. And remember that referral bonuses count towards the Companion Pass requirement.
