Credit Card Offers that Make Your Dreams Come True
Have you ever dreamed about credit card offer that will make your wishes come true? It's not as simple as getting free air miles or discounts on grocery. It is something bigger than that!
Imagine that you have a chance to make your childhood dream to travel on a space craft or to visit an exotic country come true. And you don't have to spend a lot of money to realize this dream. You will get it absolutely free, just because you are using your credit card!
Unbelievable? Absolutely not!
We all know about credit card offers that give us the rewards of all kinds. Depending on the type of credit card we can get cash back, free miles or discounts. We use these kinds of cards and enjoy their benefits. Most of us think that these are the best rewards we can get. But that's not true at all!
The new century-the new credit card rewards. Credit card companies realize that the customers with bigger bank accounts have bigger dreams! That's why Visa, American Express and MasterCard have launched the new series of awards-'experimental awards'.
Mark Shipley, the vice president for loyalty of MasterCard says that with 'choose your own reward' program card owners have requested almost everything from 1 million points flight on a Marquee jet to an iPod paper holder for the toilet for 25000 points.
You may wonder what other rewards are given for the owners of exclusive credit card offers. Here are some of them:
- Tasty points.
Visa decided to win the hearts of the customers with the help of their stomachs! The owners of Visa Signature who earn more than $125000 annually have an access to Zegat restaurant reviews through a web site. Using this web site they can also book a variety of cooking classes, wine tastings and restaurant reservations.
- Super rewards
American Express offers luxury jewelry, watches and even a personal jet service as rewards! For 7.2 million points you can get a Steinway grand piano and for 10.5 million-one year lease of Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder. After you get more than 10000 points you can turn them into something special like a limo trip that will last for 3 hours on your wedding day!
- Space rewards
If you are an American Express card holder and prefer your head in the clouds rather that your feet on earth get 20 million points! Only in this case you will have a chance to ride a suborbital space craft. You will be able to spend some minutes weightlessness and enjoy views of Earth from the space!
So, if you are a high earner and think that gasoline and frequent flyer are not the best credit card deals for you. That you have bigger dreams and fantasies that you want to realize, you should choose Experimental rewards and make your dreams come true!
