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.

To those of you doing this for companion pass. Does that mean you already took advantage of a different southwest points cc offer, spent the required 3K and got the points but never used those points. So now you do this offer to get past the minimum points threshold?

Or are you actually signing up for two different offers (say this one and the business one) simultaneously but are able to knockout 8K spending?

I will get this one. I'm getting a new chase credit card every year. Getting the points and cancelling. 💪

Chase once banned me for life. I had to get their CEO office involved to get it reversed. And I hadn't even abused very much.

I currently have a SW card, but if I refer my wife so my card gets the referral points, can I also refer for her business card to double up on the referral points? Then we can go about her new cards to earn the CP? Might as well sandbag some points on my account before opening hers. Just wondering about the double-dip.

For cobranded cards, they have been a little lax. No guarantees but I was a 5/24 when I applied for the business one a couple of weeks ago (did that first because it doesn't count toward your 5/24). Then I'm going to apply for the personal when I drop to 4/24 in a week.

1. You don't have to keep points to earn CP, you just need to earn enough during the year.
2. It makes much more sense to do two offers simultaneously and earn CP in the beginning of the year, so you have it for almost two years.

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.
It's not just referrals, because I can see it on the Southwest site. Oddly my own referral link only shows 50k for personal and 80k business.

fark me. I literally applied for priority card less than a month back which will give me 50K points. Do I have any options with chase customer service? Or shall I just apply for Business Card, and take a gamble with 130K + spending from there on?
Ask by secure message or call. Chase matches recent offers.​

Must of got rid of 50,000 points for a $1,000 spend.

You can still get that offer if you get a referral from an existing cardholder.

How difficult is it to get a business card without a business? (asking for a friend ... )
No. You can just say you are thinking of starting a business, or you are planning too.

Quote from x510 :
If we do the $3000 and get the points to get a companion pass for this year, will it still be active for 2023?

You can. But the optimal plan is to apply now, and wait to do your spending until after your December statement hits (well you can spend up to 2999 before then). Then complete your spending after your December statement so they post in January. Then you get a pass for all of 2023, and 2024(23-24 months). If you do the spending now, the points will likely not post until your December statement, so then you are looking at 12.5 months of companion pass.

Quote from ramsfan :
I have a Southwest Card that the bonus was awarded over two years ago. But, I need the points that will be posted 11/27/22 to get to Companion Pass. Do you think I am good to cancel my current card on day 11/30, and then apply for this card? The 75,000 goes a long way toward CP and I don't fly as much as previous

Honestly your best bet would be to wait a year. If you are going to qualify for companion pass with the points posting 11/27, then you will have a pass all of next year. You should be planning in late 2023/early 2024 to apply for cards, to qualify for a new companion pass in early 2024, to have it for 2024, and 2025. If you apply for this card now, you will be locked out of getting a personal card bonus next year.

Quote from jordanz12 :
How long do you have to keep the card open after getting awarded the 75k points? Can you cancel right away or does it have to be open for a year or something minimum to avoid them pulling your points back?

Chase does not have a track record of repoing points like AMEX. But there isn't much advantage in canceling the card quickly. I normally wait, and set a calander reminder for 12 months from opening, and call and ask them for a annual fee waiver, and if they dont, then cancel.
