Southwest CompanionPass
1. Get Southwest Performance Business credit card for 80000+5000 points after spending $5000 in 3 months
2. Get one of the personal credit cards to get 50000+1000 points after spending 1000 in 3 months
The above 2 cards will get you 136000 Southwest rapid reward points qualifying you for a companion pass.
The bonus points are posted on the statement date following your spending requirements are met. Therefore, make sure to complete spending requirements and combined $5000 spending ONLY AFTER your December statements so that the points are awarded/posted in January and then the companion pass will be good for 2024-25. If you time it properly you can get the pass effective Jan 4 or 5

Unfortunately I'm just now learning at some point over the last few weeks, SW changed the personal card promos from 50k bonus points to 30k, which significantly hurts my ability to reach the 135k bonus point target for companion pass.
(FWIW I'm aware this current promo for the personal card includes companion pass thru 2/28/25 but I of course would prefer to go the 135k route & have the pass valid thru end of EOY 2025 instead)
Curious if anyone has advice here. This current 30k promo expires in 32 days. Any chance SW reverts back to the 50k signup bonus at that time...? In which case I should just wait for that.
Edit: looks like you get 20k bonus points for referring a friend [nerdwallet.com] (can refer up to 5 per year)
I am in the same boat. So did you apply for the 30k offer? And referring some one?
I did business with Facebook marketplace.
Easy peasy
Don't overthink it
