Consumer and Small Business Cardholders Automatically Earn Extra Cash Back, Miles or Points as They Prep for the Holiday Season
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bank of America announced the return of its highly anticipated More Rewards Day, taking place on Thursday, November 7, 2024. Now in its third year, this annual event offers a unique opportunity for Consumer and Small Business credit cardholders to earn extra rewards on their purchases, just in time for the holiday season. Last year, participants earned more than $26 million in additional rewards during More Rewards Day.
"As our clients prepare for the holidays, we celebrate them with More Rewards Day," said Mary Hines Droesch, Head of Product for Consumer, Business, and Wealth Management Banking and Lending at Bank of America. "Whether they are shopping for gifts, booking travel or purchasing everyday essentials, this promotion allows our cardholders to maximize their rewards and get more value on their spending to kick off the season."
On More Rewards Day, all eligible Bank of America credit cardholders with rewards cards will automatically earn the following bonus rewards on top of their standard rewards:
- 2% cash back
- 2 points per $1
- 2 miles per $1
Additionally, cardholders who do not have a rewards-based credit card will earn 2% cash back as a statement credit applied to their account. Bonus rewards will be earned on the first $2,500 in purchases (up to a maximum of $50 cash back, 5,000 points, 5,000 bonus miles or a $50 statement credit) made on November 7, 2024, per each unique account or each unique small business company. Enrollment is not required – bonus rewards will be applied automatically.*
New Bank of America data shows that Americans plan to spend nearly $2,100 this holiday season, up 7% compared to 2023. Additionally, 40% of consumers say they are able to cover all or part of their holiday shopping just by redeeming points or rewards. With many consumers spending more than last year, More Rewards Day offers a unique opportunity for Bank of America cardholders to stretch their rewards earnings even further and offset costs ahead of the busy spending season.
All Bank of America consumer and small business credit cards that are open with active charging privileges on More Rewards Day are eligible. The reward type earned will depend on the card used for the purchases.
Bank of America Preferred Rewards® members will earn their Preferred Rewards bonus on purchase amounts as usual, but not on the incremental rewards earned for the More Rewards Day promotion.
