Hi Dee, As the review notes, most everyday transactions, including food, furniture, food and travel will count towards the bonus points offer. Cash advances and balance transfers don’t count, and nor will most government transactions.

In regard to the priority pass included in this card it notes that “2 airport lounges visits per year” Does this mean 2 free visits per year and anything after that needs to be paid for at standard membership rates?
Additionally, is that one priority pass per card holder?
Thanks

That’s right – it’s 2 airport lounge visits per year for the primary cardholder. Any additional visits or passes for other guests are at the standard Priority Pass rates.
