Our Verdict
Similar to the Chase deal that was offered. Gold Star membership costs $60. It’s essentially like free Costco membership since the $40 + $20 offsets the $60 cost. Sweet deal for those targeted.
Hat tip to atinge
I got this email 2 weeks ago (the offer expires 10/31). Basically spend $60 on membership (with auto-renewal) to get $60 statement credit. Has anyone use Earner Biz card to buy personal costco membership? Did it work?
I talked to barclay’s customer support and they insist I have no such offer on my account. Now it is as sketchy as barclays go and not sure if it worth to pull the trigger.
Signed up today.
Any one knows how soon after activating the membership in store, will I get the 20$ cash card?
TIA
Did you get the statement credit and the cash card? I got a similar offer recently but haven’t seen a positive data points at all.
As far as I remember, I got both.
That’s a pretty nice offer from Barclay’s. I actually had the Wyndham card for a few years–the old one that earned two points per any dollar spent. However, they shut me down, as I was hitting it hard. Now that they’ve moved to the new rewards structure, it was probably a blessing that I was shut down, although I still have over 200K points to use in the next 13 months before they begin to expire. It was definitely a good run while it lasted.

Lots of Visa cards seem to be offering this lately, Fidelity, Chase, etc.
Thanks, let me added
