Guru’s Wrap-up
This a very good offer that can easily be worth around $1,000 in value. You get 50,000 Membership Rewards points after you spend $5,000 in three months plus a $200 credit when you sign up and make a qualifying transaction with vendor Pay. The service should be free for the first six month. This is definitely much better than the current public offer, if you are targeted.
