There is a new wrinkle in my continuing saga with the Barclaycard Arrival Plus™ World Elite MasterCard® travel credit card. This credit card allows you to earn points or “miles” on purchases, and to redeem those points for statement credits on qualified travel purchases. The card offers a ten percent bonus on points redemptions, awarding travel purchases a payout of effectively 2.2 percent.
I have previously reported that the ten percent bonus did not post until the next month’s statement. My recent experience with points redemptions indicates that the 10 percent bonus points post immediately, and are immediately available for additional redemptions.
You can apply for the Barclaycard Arrival Plus™ World Elite MasterCard® here.
I am curious if others have had the same experience with bonus points!

Haven’t used my Barclay card since the initial points for opening it, so I can’t give any helpful comments.
