Recommended Application Time
- We recommend you apply for this card after you have a credit history of at least one year.
- 2/3/4 Rule: BoA will only approve you for at most: 2 cards per rolling 2 months; 3 cards per rolling 12 months; and 4 cards per rolling 24 months. Because their IT system hasn’t been fully updated yet, you may not get declined because of this rule. Instead, you may get approved at first, and then the account will be closed because of “approved in error”.
- 24 month churn rule: This card will not be available to you if you currently have or have had the card in the preceding 24 month period.
Summary
This card is the same as the old BoA Alaska card. The welcome offer is quite attractive. However, the reward rate for spending is not impressive, which makes it not a great choice to keep unless you really fly with them a lot.
