I've been using this off and on for a few years now with success. You could add a spouse as an authorized user to your card to get them a card so they can get in free as well
Likewise, I've never seen this on my card literature (and never heard about it from my ml advisor, who knows we're history nuts). Also, haw stingy can you be to limit it to a single admission? A pair would be reasonable, up to 3 or a family admission would be an ideal benefit.
I've had my b of a credit card for years and never knew about this. What else am I missing out on?

Can I sign up online and show them an email or something if I don't have the card yet?

I actually cancelled my BoA card years ago. I barely used the museum offer and the museums I wanted to go to weren't on their list.

Do these places typically get swamped on these BOA free days?

Given how few of us with the card have even heard of it, and that it happens the first weekend of every month, and that museums are less popular these days in general I'm gonna say no.

The major museums like the Met will have lines down the block to get in. In smaller museums it's usually a small line inside. I'd say an uptick of people visiting in general, but not swamped unless it's one of the major museums.

Do they just look at the card and give you a ticket? Or is there some lookup or verification of the card number?
