Episode Synopsis

In this week’s midweek mini episode of Wonderland on Points, we break down the newly settled lawsuit between merchants and Mastercard/Visa over interchange fees and what the changes could mean for premium credit-card rewards going forward, before diving into Capital One’s stunningly rare 100K Venture X offer, why it’s one of the most elevated bonuses we’ve seen in years, and how to decide if the high spend requirement is worth the massive mileage haul. We also touch on the boosted Venture X Business offer and who it makes the most sense for, then wrap with one of the best hidden gems in points and miles: the little-known fact that you can actually combine Hyatt points with other people, unlocking bigger redemptions, longer stays, and more flexibility than most travelers realize. Tune in for a fast, focused episode packed with news, strategy, and insider rewards tips to help you maximize every point.Mary Ellen- Venture X ReferralJoanna- Venture X ReferralHyatt Combine Points FormFind Us On OnlineMary Ellen | JoFacebook GroupWonderland On Points BlogEpisode SponsorComfrt Hoodie EXTRA 15% OFF of Black Friday Sale Prices!Youtube Review of Comfrt HoodiesAffiliate LinksRakuten- Mary Ellen (Get 5000 AMEX or Bilt POINTS)Rakuten- Joanna (Get 5000 AMEX or Bilt POINTS)Chase/Capital One/Amex Card Links30% off the CardPointers subscription!FlyKitt- the BEST Jet Lag Solution!Tripiamo Driving TutorialsOur Favorite Travel NecessitiesWe receive a small commission when you choose to use any of our links to purchase your products or apply for your cards!
