Our deluge of credit card changes for September continues!
mbna has given their Best Western MasterCard a slight refresh for the fall. The main changes happening to card are the additional points earning for using the card at Best Western properties as you’ll now earn 5 points per dollar spent at BW properties, however the point earning on all other spending now drops to 1 point per dollar spent from 1.5. Definitely a downgrade on the regular spending. It appears they are really targeting big time Best Western users with this card now as not only does it earn more for BW stays but cardholders will now get Gold status on first purchase (rather than a one level elite status upgrade when reaching $6,000 in spend) and Diamond Status when spending $10,000 on the card within one year. Good news is the sign up bonus of 20,000 points remains.
