Also: Earn up to 110,000 SkyMiles with these best-ever bonuses September 13, 2024 [THE POINTS GUY]( [View in browser]( [TPG Daily NEWSLETTER]( [THE POINTS GUY]( Plan ahead with a new card today by Nick Ewen, Senior Editorial Director [TPG | Hero Image] Did you kick yourself last year for going over your budget for your holiday trip? Or maybe you skipped it entirely because prices were just too high. If so, you don’t have to relive that experience this upcoming holiday season. The solution: Add a new credit card to your wallet now. In fact, now may be an ideal time to do so if you have a goal of traveling more for less. A terrific welcome offer came out last week on the no-annual-fee [Ink Business Unlimited® Credit Card](. You’ll earn $900 bonus cash back after you spend $6,000 on purchases in the first three months from account opening. (Here are [tips for getting approved]( for a small-business card.) Even better? If you already have a card like the [Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card]( or the [Chase Sapphire Reserve®]( you can convert those rewards into more valuable, fully transferable Ultimate Rewards points (check out [this guide]( for the full details). Then there’s the suite of Delta Air Lines cobranded American Express cards, all of which just launched [new, limited-time welcome offers](. In fact, some of them match (or even exceed) the best offer we’ve seen. The no-annual-fee [Delta SkyMiles® Gold American Express Card]( is offering its best bonus ever — 80,000 bonus miles after you spend $3,000 on purchases in the first six months of card membership. This could also be the perfect chance to grab a credit card to help with your [elite status goals](. If you’re coming up short of your desired status for this year, there are many cards that can help — including some of those Delta cards as well as the [World of Hyatt Business Credit Card]( which is currently offering its own [best-ever bonus]( which you can use to book a great [Hyatt all-inclusive resort](. If you’re anticipating large fall expenses like tax payments or flights for Thanksgiving, why not have those expenses earn you a big haul of rewards or push you closer to elite status — or both?
