Our Verdict
Unfortunately the sign up bonus isn’t that attractive given the offers we have seen from Chase on the other Avios earning cards. The cards and benefits are also extremely lacking given the high annual fees. Cardless only lets you hold one Cardless card at a time as well, so that is something to consider. I could see some people signing up for the $99 annual fee if they have a need for Avios and have already done better earning bonuses but by no means a great offer. It might be worth waiting to see if the Avianca card is any better before signing up as well.
