If you are applying for a personal Alaska card, and are not an expert on applying for Alaska cards STOP, don't apply yet.
Instead, read this post. Doing that first may save you a huge amount of wasted time and frustration.
A few people in the Alaska Airlines forum have in the past received personally targeted, single-use links for a 50k offer
when they opt-in to "Partner Offers" in their Mileage Plan account preferences.

BUSINESS CARDS
30k mile offer, $75 AF, $1k spend, no foreign transaction fees:
https://www.bankofamerica.com/smallb...-credit-card//
Note: There are two different earning formats for the business card, which you choose when you apply:
To avoid billing confusion later, make sure you choose the Individual Level Earning Plan if you are not going to have employee cards under the same account as your account.
Also see the Applying for Business Credit Cards [Consolidated] thread (not-BofA-specific) for general tips on applying for business cards.

Business card Recon Line:
866-695-6598 (8-7 EST M-F from what I was told)

Credit Enquiries for Personal cards come from BofA. Enquiries for business cards come from FIA. Credit bureaus usually merge enquiries from the same requester made on the same day. Enquiries from BofA and FIA will not be merged.
When do the initial bonus miles post? You will get the miles after the statement closes for the cycle in which you meet your minimum spend. Usually AS points show up the Sunday evening after your statement closes, but sometimes it takes an additional week.
If there's a statement credit, when does it post?
It seems to be batch-processed. It will post automatically. Can be on the same statement or the next statement. It does not appear to be based on the statement close date.

My wife was approved within a day and already has 25K in the account. We don't even have the card in hand yet. This has got to be the fastest bonus ever.

Applied 12/16, got the normal "we will follow up in 30 days" note. Logged onto BofA to check on my other card and see that it was approved and shown as an open account.
I figured I'd have to call last this week. Thanks BofA!

That entire website (www.applyonlinenow.com) seems to be down, so I'm hoping it's just a temporary issue and the offer will return. Of course, I waited until today to do a mini-AOR, and then the link dies.

https://www.applyonlinenow.com/USCCa...ry?sc=VAB3E9#b
25k at approval
25k after $1000 spend within 90 days
Annual fee NOT waived
(Don't know the source and didn't try it out, so YMMV.)
