There is only one week left to 調印する-up to what is 存在 述べるd by an 専門家 as an 'ludicrously generous' credit card 特別手当.

Those who qualify for the Barclaycard Avios 加える Mastercard can 捕らえる、獲得する themselves a 調印する-up 特別手当 of 50,000 Avios points.

This, によれば 略奪する Burgess ? editor of website 長,率いる for Points ? is 価値(がある) £500 in 航空機による 保証人/証拠物件s, or at the very least £333 in Nectar points which can be spent at Sainsbury's.

Barclaycard is offering a 50,000 Avios sign-up offer on its Barclaycard Avios Plus Mastercard.

Barclaycard is 申し込む/申し出ing a 50,000 Avios 調印する-up 申し込む/申し出 on its Barclaycard Avios 加える Mastercard.

To qualify, new cardmembers need to spend £3,000 within the first three months.

On 最高の,を越す of the introductory 申し込む/申し出, cardmembers will collect 1.5 Avios for every £1 spent on 適格の 購入(する)s.

Those who spend £10,000 on the card within 12 months can also choose between a British 航空路s cabin 昇格 保証人/証拠物件 to use on a Avios Reward Flight 調書をとる/予約するing, or 7,000 特別手当 Avios.

It also gives 接近 to over 1,000 airport lounges 世界的な at a 割引d 率 of £18.50 per lounge pass, per person and also up to five months of Apple TV+, Apple Music, Apple Fitness+, Apple News+ and Apple Arcade for 解放する/自由な.

The card won't be for everyone, however. 存在するing cardmembers are not 適格の while the card also comes with a £20 月毎の 料金, which may put some people off.

Anyone who 以前 取り消すd a Barclaycard Avios credit card in the past will be 適格の as long as there has been a 24 month gap.

Rob Burgess - editor of website Head for Points - says that Barclaycard's two Avios mastercards are the most rewarding non-Amex travel credit cards on t
he market and arguably the most valuable Visa or Mastercard credit card in the UK.

略奪する Burgess - editor of website 長,率いる for Points - says this? isthe most rewarding 非,不,無-Amex travel credit cards on the market and arguably the most 価値のある ビザ or Mastercard credit card in the UK.

Those who have had any other Barclaycard will be 適格の only if they have 取り消すd their 非,不,無-Avios Barclaycard more than six months ago.

The 申し込む/申し出 is on until 30 May.

Mr Burgess, says this is the most rewarding 非,不,無-Amex travel credit card on the market.

'This is an unparalleled 取引,協定, 特に when you consider the 月毎の 料金,' says Burgess.

'If you believe you can get 1p per Avios 経由で 賞与金 cabin flights then it is a £500 調印する-up 特別手当 for a £20 a month credit card that you can 取り消す at any point.

'As long as you can 攻撃する,衝突する the 的 spend, and as long as you qualify as a new Barclaycard 顧客, it is ludicrously generous.

'The worse 事例/患者 シナリオ, even for a 非,不,無-Avios collector, is to take the 50,000 Avios points and 移転 them into 66,666 Nectar points, 価値(がある) £333 which isn't 正確に/まさに a bad 取引,協定.

If you don't want to 支払う/賃金 any 料金 at all, there is also a special 申し込む/申し出 of 10,000 Avios on the 解放する/自由な Barclaycard Avios Mastercard, for th ose who spend £1,000 in three months.

But Mr Burgess says: 'I genuinely don't recommend getting the 解放する/自由な card with 10,000 Avios if you believe that you can spend £3,000 in three months to earn 50,000 Avios on the paid card.'

As always with any credit card 忠義 points 計画/陰謀 it is 決定的な to play by the 支配するs - the most important 存在, 支払う/賃金 off the balance in 十分な every month or 直面する 存在 stung with sky-high 利益/興味.?

Why is Barclaycard 申し込む/申し出ing such a good 取引,協定?

によれば Burgess, Barclays is trying to 補充する its 顧客 base and 戦う/戦い 支援する against American 表明する.

This is an argument that stacks up when you consider how many banking 顧客s have been losing over 最近の years.

Barclays has lost more bank account switchers than any other bank, since the 経常収支 switching service (CASS) began almost 10 years ago.

Since the beginning of 2014, Barclays has lost more than 544,000 switchers than it has 伸び(る)d, によれば numbers crunched by Andrew Hagger, a personal 財政/金融 専門家 at MoneyComms.

To put that in 状況, the next worst performer is RBS, which has lost 概略で 273,000 switchers more than it has 伸び(る)d during that time.?

一方/合間, 全国的な Building Society has scooped up almost 800,000 bank account switchers.

Burgess says: 'The 普通の/平均(する) Barclays 現在の acco unt 顧客 is probably in their 50s - do you know any 20 year-olds with a Barclays 経常収支?

'The 普通の/平均(する) Avios 顧客 - at least the 普通の/平均(する) BA Gold or Silver member is 30-45, 公正に/かなり 井戸/弁護士席 off with an 普通の/平均(する) income of probably around £70,000.

'This is attractive to Barclays as they try to 再構築する their base. They are willing to lose money on the credit cards to pull people into 首相 経常収支s, personal 貸付金s, mortgages etc.'

How it compare versus Amex's British 航空路s 賞与金 card?

The British 航空路s American 表明する 賞与金 加える Card is an obvious 代案/選択肢 to Barclaycard's Avios 加える.

The card comes with a £250 年次の 料金 ? so £20.83 per month - and also 申し込む/申し出s 1.5 Avios for every £1 spent. On 購入(する)s made with British 航空路s or BA Holidays this is 増加するd to 3 Avios for every £1 spent.

The card comes with 調印する-up 特別手当, 申し込む/申し出ing 25,000 Avios if £3,000 is spent in the first three months.

加える, it also 申し込む/申し出s a companion 保証人/証拠物件 in any cabin, 含むing 商売/仕事 & first class when new cardmembers spend £10,000 in a year.

Emily Herring, at comparison 場所/位置, Finder, says: 'Barclaycard has gone 長,率いる to 長,率いる with the British 航空路s American 表明する 賞与金 加える credit card, by 申し込む/申し出ing the most generous Avios 特別手当 on the market.

'This 50,000 Avios points 特別手当 最高の,を越すs Amex's 現在の 特別手当 of 25,000, but If you travel a lot on BA, it's still 価値(がある) considering the Amex, because you get 3倍になる Avios on BA spending.

'加える, you can get a companion 保証人/証拠物件 - an extra flight ticket for a friend - when you spend £10,000 in a year.

'For たびたび(訪れる) flyers, a credit card that 申し込む/申し出s 空気/公表する miles, cabin 昇格s and lounge 接近 is a 広大な/多数の/重要な way to make your everyday spending more rewarding - but it's only 価値(がある) it if you always 支払う/賃金 off your balance each month.

'Both cards come with a 公正に/かなり hefty 料金, so only consider them if you're going to use the points and perks. You'll need a pretty decent credit 得点する/非難する/20 to be 適格の for these cards, too.'
