Issuer Rules

Rules: Eligibility for the Synchrony Premier World Mastercard in 2026 typically requires good to excellent credit (FICO score generally 670+), being 18 years or older, a U.S. resident, and possessing a valid Social Security Number or ITIN. Applicants should not have received a sign-up bonus for this specific card product within the last 24-48 months.

Maximum Cards Per Issuer: 6

Minimum Spend Interval: 3 months

Shutdown Risk Triggers: Manufactured spending (e.g., excessive gift card purchases, payment app loads), high cumulative credit limit across all Synchrony accounts, sudden drastic changes in spending patterns (especially after meeting a bonus), prolonged account inactivity followed by large purchases, repeated balance transfers without new spending, suspected fraudulent activity, or multiple applications for Synchrony products in a short period.
