75k is venture w/ $95 annual fee, 90k is venture x w/ $395 annual fee. Only get the X if you travel

Applied and got rejected. FICO ~830. As to the reason, the letter says "Based on your credit report from one or more of the agencies on the back of this letter, number of bank cards tradelines opened in the last 24 months."

Weird - I have only three credit cards that were obtained in the last 24 months.

Interesting. I have the same credit rating and I have at least 8 credit cards though I can't say how many are less than 24 months old. I was approved immediately so maybe it's less than 3.

Someone on Reddit posted a referral code that I guess no one had used. I grabbed it and got 90K points for the Venture X. That's ~$900 toward my 30 year wedding anniversary trip!

Lol, those codes can be used more than once. What happened is that you got 90k points and that poster's referral link gained him/her 40k points. That's why you see so many people posting referral codes on here. Once you have your card, you could refer your wife for another 90k points to her and 40k more to you. (as long as you can both meet spending requirements)

If I add my spouse as an authorized user and later refer her, does her own card give her the SUB even though she is an authorized user on my card?

If you can spend the initial amount and travel credits, does it make sense for both husband and wife to have their own independent cards?

As others have pointed out, you can buy gift cards at Staples and other stores or you can pay property and income taxes with a credit card and incur fees but still worth it if it's the only way. Insurance payments and in some states like SC where I live, you can even pay state income taxes with a credit card and not be charged any fees.

Thanks for the tip. Can you somehow combine points when booking travel? What if I've already put her down as an authorized user on my card?

I've not been in either situation so can't answer. Hopefully someone else can.

I will suggest to get a referral in your circle that way you both will benefit with the offer. I did the same.
75,000 miles can be used to pay for $750 travel cost booked from Capitalone. FYI, they do price match also on travel cost.
