NEW Sign-up Bonus Offer for Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express
The Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express has doubled the value of its sign-up bonus for new applicants. Instead of receiving 10,000 bonus Starpoints after you charge $1,500 in purchases to this travel rewards credit card in the first three months, you’ll receive 20,000 bonus Starpoints. Based on Ratehub.ca’s calculations, since the average value of 1 Starpoint = $0.0223, the original sign-up bonus was already worth $223 – so now it’s worth $446, depending on when and what you redeem your points for.
The SPG program is one of the most popular rewards programs for frequent travellers. SPG rewards points, also known as Starpoints, can be redeemed for flights and trains, but the reason most people become Starwood members is so they can redeem points for free hotel stays. If you find that accommodation is one of the most expensive costs on your trips, this credit card can help you save big. And the incredible value of this new bonus makes it one of the best credit cards in Canada.
