Issuer Rules

Rules: Bank of America's known application velocity rules (expected to persist into 2026) apply: no more than 2 new Bank of America credit cards in the past 2 months, 3 in the past 12 months, and 4 in the past 24 months. This rule applies across all Bank of America credit card products. Eligibility requirements for the Bank of America Platinum Plus Mastercard typically include having good to excellent credit (FICO score generally 670+), being at least 18 years old, and possessing a valid Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN). Approval is subject to Bank of America's comprehensive underwriting criteria, including income verification and existing credit relationships. This card primarily focuses on introductory APR offers for purchases and balance transfers rather than a significant sign-up bonus. If a small introductory bonus (e.g., a statement credit) is offered, it is typically a one-time offer for new cardholders and may have specific eligibility criteria, such as not having held the card previously.

Maximum Cards Per Issuer: 4

Minimum Spend Interval: 3 months (90 days) if an introductory bonus is offered, though this card primarily focuses on APR offers rather than spend-based bonuses.

Shutdown Risk Triggers: Manufactured spending, high cumulative credit limit across Bank of America accounts, frequent balance transfers to other banks, sudden drastic changes in spending patterns, non-organic spending behavior, multiple applications for credit in a short period (even outside BofA), and general non-compliance with cardholder agreement terms.
