Continental Visa/Mastercard?
I've just transferred my delta platinum status over to continental and am expecting to fly them to Asia a few times this year. I was going to sign up for their visa but was wondering if there's anything I should know.
Also any specials if you sign up or is it just the standard 20k miles at sign up, then 5k after 1st purchase |
Continental Chase Visa doesn't offer any sign up bonus miles. Here's a link to the Continental Chase MC for up to 40k miles bonus:

Sorry, try again.

Anyone had luck getting the 40K CO Chase card? My mom is in the market for a new mileage card, and this one would be nice!
I'm a little sad about this offer myself, since when I got the CO World MC from Chase the bonus was only 15K miles... CLG |
I think the 40k he mentioned is if you add a second card holder. This is often the case.
I ended up getting the world MC for business because in addition to the 2 for 1 miles the personal card offers, the business card you also get 2 miles per $1 on "purchases charged on dining, gas and office supplies". For the personal it only specifies 2 for 1 with the select business partners. You don't need to be a business owner, just apply the same as you would for a personal card, it'll ask for a business name and you can put whatever you want in there. The supposed purpose is that you'll have 2 seperate bills to more easily seperate your expenses. In the end I got 20k miles for signing up, 5k after 1st purchase, 10K at my 1 year anniversary as a card holder. It adds up to 40 only if I add someone else to my account (5k bonus for that). Alot of cards have that "add a card holder bonus" so they can advertise the larger possible bonus miles, but how many people actually do that? |

I don't think it does. I needed the card regardless, but I didn't see it in the terms.
