For a limited time until March 31, 2015 - you can earn 70,000 bonus points with IHG credit card. There used to be an 80,000 bonus points, unfortunately that link is no longer alive. The offer that has been around for a long time is the 60,000 bonus points plus the $50 statement credit after first purchase.


I personally love having this credit card and the perks it gives me as a card member.
