Application Process
Issuer Rules & Policies
PENDINGRules: Applicants must be 18 years or older (19 in AL/NE), a US resident with a valid SSN or ITIN. Approval requires good to excellent credit (typically FICO 670+), a stable income, and a low debt-to-income ratio. Synchrony is sensitive to recent credit inquiries and new accounts. Existing Synchrony cardholders may face stricter approval criteria if they already hold multiple high-limit accounts. Bonus Rule: Earn 25,000 bonus points after spending $1,500 on purchases within the first 3 months of account opening. Points are redeemable for Cheapoair travel or statement credits. Store-specific restrictions apply primarily to how bonus points are earned and redeemed within the Cheapoair ecosystem, and may include limitations on specific travel products or booking channels.
Max Cards Per Issuer: 4
Min Spend Interval: 3 months
Cliff Effect Rules: Synchrony does not typically enforce 'card family' or 'cliff effect' rules similar to major issuers. Each card product is generally evaluated independently for eligibility and rewards, meaning holding one Synchrony card does not usually preclude eligibility for another, nor does it significantly alter the benefits of other cards within their portfolio. However, overall creditworthiness and total credit exposure with Synchrony will influence approval for additional cards.
Special Events: As a co-branded travel card, special events are tied to Cheapoair promotions. Expect enhanced earning opportunities or redemption bonuses during specific Cheapoair sales events, flash deals, or exclusive cardholder-only travel packages. These are typically announced directly by Cheapoair or Synchrony.
Holiday Promos: Anticipate special travel deals and potentially increased reward earning rates during major travel booking holidays (e.g., Black Friday/Cyber Monday for travel, New Year's travel sales, summer vacation booking periods, spring break promotions). These are driven by Cheapoair's marketing calendar.
International Friendly: Yes
