Issuer Rules & Policies
PENDINGRules: Applicants for the Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier Credit Card must meet several eligibility requirements. The primary rule is Chase's '5/24 Rule,' meaning applicants are generally ineligible if they have opened 5 or more personal credit cards from any issuer (including Chase) in the past 24 months. Additionally, applicants are not eligible for the new cardmember bonus if they currently hold any Southwest Rapid Rewards personal credit card or have received a new cardmember bonus for any Southwest Rapid Rewards personal credit card in the past 24 months. To qualify for the welcome offer, a specified minimum spend must typically be met within the first 3 months of account opening. General eligibility requires applicants to be 18 years or older, possess a valid Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), and have a good to excellent credit history. While Chase does not publish a strict maximum number of cards per individual, internal credit exposure limits may apply.
