Card Details

  • Card earns 1.5% cash back on all purchases
  • No annual fee

Our Verdict

Highest bonus on this card was previously $200, so this is an extra $50. NFCU is also offering a bonus of 50,000 points on the Flagship rewards card as well.It’s not worth using this card after you get the sign up bonus as there are other credit cards that offer a higher rate on everyday purchases, but the sign up bonus might be attractive to some people.

Navy Federal is only available for military and veterans – full eligibility information can be found here (plus family members. Even if they are deceased). Keep in mind that joining NFCU is a hard pull, it’s possible you’ll land up with two hard pulls if you join and signup for the card, but hopefully those will be combined. Learn more about Navy Federal credit cards in the post Navy Federal Credit Union (NFCU) Credit Cards: List, Best Cards & Things You Must Know.

  • Government pays on time, say what you want.

    Met Monday, credited under "cashRewards" balance today or earlier.

  • Maybe it Is Targeted but I logged into Amazon today and there was a banner that said:

    Make NFCU default, get a $10 promotional credit.

    I have spent $1000 on AMZ w NFCU.

  • Targeted offer on my Go Rewards card (last used 04/11/22): Earn 5k bonus points when you spend $500, expires 6/30. The card earns 3% at restaurants, 2% on gas stations, and 1% else. Points redeemable for 1 cent. So 11-13% back on $500.

  • Other then 250 bonus is there any use or PC product worth doing it for? Looking to open another personal card and SUB weak other than CSP

  • Easy bonus! Opened account. Used the c/c to pay my annual premiums for my home and auto insurance (insurance company does not charge a fee for using a c/c). Bonus was posted within a few days of making the charge - about three weeks before the payment was due.

  • FYI. giftcards.com purchases do not count toward the spending requirement...learned it the hard way.

  • I would note, however, that I only opened a savings account. Also, they allow credit card funding up to $250, and it does not code as a cash advance, but rather, a membership fee.
