Our verdict
A similar offer has recently been availableand this time the spending requirement is lower at $3,000 (previously $5k). The offer has become even sweeter now with the two $50 airline credits that all Boundless cardholders can receive in 2026. This is a fantastic offer and the best variation we’ve seen. (For context, when it’s a flat point offer, it’s usually 100k-125k.) We’ll add this to our best credit card bonus site.
The good thing about this offer is that there are no restrictions on when/where the free night certificates can be used and you can also top up the certificates with points if they cost more than 50,000 points per night (up to 15,000 points per night).
Just a reminder that the five free night certificates expire after one year from issue.
