Our Verdict
Standard offer I think is $100 or $200, we’ve seen as high as $300 in the past. Card isn’t worth keeping long term, but a $500 cash bonus in this climate is very very attractive. BBVA normally always pulls your TransUnion credit report, for most people that’s a good thing as it’s usually the least used bureau for most people. I’ll add this to our list of the best credit card bonuses.
