For those who often book trips through travel aggregators like Expedia, Hotels.com, and VRBO, those companies have a joint loyalty program called OneKey. And adding either the One Key™ Card or the One Key+™ Card to your wallet can provide even more value during your upcoming trips.

Now, both cards have new and improved welcome offers, along with some new card art. Here are all the details of new offers and how you could go about deciding which is best for you.

New Welcome Offers on Wells Fargo’s One Key Cards

In addition to brand new card art, both cards have increased welcome bonus offers for a limited time. Depending on which card you apply for, you can earn up to $600 in OneKeyCash.
