- Barclays JetBlue Plus WEMC ($99 annual fee): up to 100,000 points (50,000 points after spending $1,000 within the first 3 months of new account opening and another 50,000 points after spending a total of $6,000 within the first 12 months.
- Barclays JetBlue BUSINESS WEMC ($99 annual fee): up to 100,000 points (50,000 points after spending $1,000 within the first 3 months of new account opening and another 50,000 points after spending a total of $6,000 within the first 12 months.
- For either card, JetBlue points are worth about 1.44 cents a piece (increased from regularly 1.3 cents), so the signup bonus after considering the first annual fee is $1,340. These are truly amazing deals as historically the best we have seen was 60,000 points for each card.
Barclays has increased the signup bonuses for its two JetBlue World Elite MasterCards (WEMC) to 100,000 points each:

There are some recent updates for our featured review, mostly for Chase Sapphire Reserve, Sapphire Preferred, Ink Preferred, Freedom Unlimited, Freedom Flex. We copy the content of the review below and highlight the updates in cardinal.
Updated October 22, 2020. COVID-19 has obviously changed consumer behavior in a way that most of us probably would had never anticipated before, and it only makes sense that credit card issuers have been making adjustments accordingly. This review summarizes all the temporary benefits provided by credit card issuers during this pandemic. American Express

Chase Marriott Bonvoy Boundless best bonus ever: five free nights, each capped at 50,000-point level10/1/2020 Chase has brought us an amazing signup offer for Marriott Bonvoy Boundless Visa Signature:
Capital One Venture up to 100,000 Miles ($1,000 in travel rewards or 75,000 frequent flyer miles)9/22/2020
Chase just brought us an improved signup bonus for Sapphire Preferred:
BofA Alaska Visa has offered the best historical bonuses for both the personal version and business version:
Citi Premier has been revamped to offer 3x ThankYou points on groceries & gas & dining & airlines & hotels & travel agencies, almost single-handedly covering all important bonus categories. Previously, Citi Premier offered 3x on gas & travel, and 2x on dining & entertainment. Our current valuation for ThankYou points is 1.5 cents a piece based on the miles/points transfer feature (partners including Avianca, Singapore, Cathay Pacific, Flying Blue, JetBlue, Etihad, etc.), and thus Citi Premier returns 4.5% travel rewards for all its 3x categories. With this substantial improvement, Citi Premier is now #1 Best Credit Card for Rewards, unseating the long reigning Amex EveryDay Preferred, and also rated #3 Best Credit Card by Dr. Credit Card. Note that 3x bonus on groceries & gas has been offered to cardmembers since June, ahead of the schedule revamp as part of temporary COVID-19 relief by credit cards. Here are the before and after snapshots for our Top 10 list. However, Citi Premier only returns 1x for non-bonus spending, and we recommend looking somewhere else for general spending. For example, Citi Double Cash which usually returns 2% cashback can be a great card to pair with Citi Premier, as you may transfer Double Cash's cash rewards to ThankYou points and activate miles/points transfer feature to unlock the full potential of the card - an unmatched 3% travel rewards based on our valuation.
On the other hand, leveraging the flexible miles/points transfer feature can be both very rewarding and challenging at the same time. If you don't know how to use the transfer feature effectively / just don't want to bother with the hassles and rather prefer fixed-value travel rewards, you probably want to check out the competitors such as Chase Sapphire Reserve, US Bank Altitude Reserve, and Wells Fargo Propel Amex, each of which offers a 1.5-cent fixed-value travel redemption option. We also updated the Best Credit Card for Rewards review to reflect this change. Now we recommend Citi Double Cash + Citi Premier as one of the four best two-card combos for rewards. We are continuing updating the featured review and also posting in the blog section. The new updates are highlighted in cardinal below: Delta Gold Amex (personal & business) gets 4x miles on dining & 5x on Delta purchases; Delta Platinum Amex and Delta Reserve Amex (personal & business) get 5x miles on Delta and 500 miles + 500 MQMs per $1K spent, up to 25K bonus miles. In addition, we rearranged quite bit of other parts of the write-up to make it easier to navigate. We also added annual free night extension by Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt, and IHG.
