SWA has announced that, starting in 2023, Southwest is raising the qualifying benchmark for the Companion Pass from achieving 125,000 qualifying points to 135,000 qualifying points in the same calendar year.

You can earn it through credit card spend points, but you can also earn it through other ways such as referral points for referring people to get the card and/or spending through the spending portal or spend partners. In years past, I have gotten the companion pass pretty early in the calendar year with one card's large bonus + referral points from a few people who signed up.

If you are targeting the companion pass, get the card now, but remember not to complete the full initial spend of $3,000 until late December 2022 or Jan 2023 -- and after your December billing statement closes (but still before the 3 month window from when you were approved). This is so you get the bonus in 2023. Then do other things in 2023 to get to 135,000 qualifying points, and you will have a companion pass for the rest of 2023 and all of 2024.
Yes! The best plan is the qualify to earn the companion pass in early 2023 and the CP goes the rest of the year and all of 2024!
Yes, but you should make sure both bonuses hit in early 2023 (instead of one bonus hitting in late 2022 and one hitting in early 2023)...Track your spending.

Looks like the business card is 80k points. Can we combine to get to 135k for companion pass?

Yassss!!! Thanks! My 2 year anniversary from my last bonus is 11/27. I'll wait until 12/3 & hopefully they don't retire this offer early! I miss the days of being able to combine both the plus & premier & getting the companion pass!!

Time to send Chase a message to match just applied for the SW Priority.

Is this just through referral? As I don't see it on chase main site.

How difficult is it to get a business card without a business? (asking for a friend ... )

If we do the $3000 and get the points to get a companion pass for this year, will it still be active for 2023?

Looks like companion pass will roll over to following year. I just signed up for wells Fargo credit card. You think I'll be denied for applying two southwest cards? Lol

Any idea if there is a way to see when you last received a bonus?

Hmm,

Just applied for Priority Card in last week and a half. Wonder if they'll sweeten the deal?

It's strange that this appears to be a hidden deal. If you try to reach it from anywhere other than this link its still only 50k pts...
