Southwest Airlines has recently renewed a coupon (that you probably didn’t know existed!) and added another points-earning opportunity for credit cardholders.

These promos can be found in your Southwest account, but they aren’t obvious, so many people probably don’t know they are there.

Let’s check out these somewhat hidden perks offered on Southwest credit cards.

There’s a targeted offer out now for Southwest credit cardholders that you may not know about.

You can earn 3,000 bonus points on Southwest cards after spending at least $1,000 on Southwest cards through March 31, 2025.

Purchases must be made between February 1 and March 31, 2025.

Even better, these points will count toward Southwest Companion Pass qualification. However, they won’t count toward A-List or A-List Preferred status.

Another Southwest points multiplier is out there right now could stack with this new promo:

Chase.com/mybonus: Some Southwest credit cardholders may be targeted for a bonus through chase.com/mybonus. This offer is for 5x to 7x points at gas stations, grocery stores, restaurants, and/or Amazon for up to $1,000 in combined purchases through March 31, 2025.

These bonuses are all targeted, and you could be targeted for all of them! Regardless of how they end up stacking in the end, this is an excellent opportunity to earn Southwest points fast.

All of these promotions can be found in your online account by clicking on My Account and scrolling down to My Promotions.

For all of these points promotions, it’s important to remember that some things don’t earn points, including balance transfers, cash advances, traveler’s checks, foreign currency, money orders, wire transfers, or similar cash-like transactions, lottery tickets, casino gaming chips, race track wagers or other betting transactions, checks, interest, unauthorized or fraudulent charges, or fees of any kind, including an annual fee.

Hot Tip:

Eligible cards for this promo can include the Southwest Rapid Rewards^® Plus Credit Card, Southwest Rapid Rewards^® Premier Credit Card, and the Southwest Rapid Rewards^® Priority Credit Card.
