IT’S BACK! Get 50,000 Avios Bonus With The Barclaycard Avios Plus Mastercard

Until the 30th of May, Barclaycard has increased the sign-up bonus on their Avios Plus Barclaycard again from 25000 to 50000 Avios bonus. To get the 50000 points sign-up bonus you need to spend £3,000 within 3 months. This equates to roughly £1,000 a month worth of spend on the card. You can apply here – https://www.barclaycard.co.uk/personal/credit-cards/avios-plus.

Even if you don’t want to use your 50000 Avios for flights the bonus can be converted into £333 worth of Nectar points. That is pretty impressive considering the card only has a £20 monthly fee and can be cancelled at any time. If you kept the card for 3 months that is a £60 outlay for 50,000 Avios or £333 worth of Nectar points… a profit of at least £273 not too shabby!

If you have held or hold an Avios Barclaycard in the past 24 months you aren’t eligible for a sign-up bonus from the Avios Barclaycards. Also, If you currently hold any Barclaycard or have done so in the last 6 months you aren’t eligible to apply. Currently hold a Barclaycard? You may be able to switch your card in the Barclays app. See our article here – https://pointsuncovered.com/barclays/how-to-change-your-existing-barclaycard-to-an-avios-barclaycard/

What are the 50000 Avios Points worth?

We value Avios at 1p (how to value Avios points?) which means you should be able to get at least £500 worth of ‘value’ from these points using them for flights.

50000 Avios will give you enough points for a Business Class return (£50 ‘taxes & fees’ will be due for the best value option) to Zone 1+2+3 locations including Milan, Prague, Gran Canaria & Venice.

50000 Avios is also the cost of a one-way business class flight (‘taxes & fees’ will be due) to Zone 4+5 locations including Tel Aviv, New York & Dubai.

If you don’t want to use them for flights 50000 Avios also converts into £333 worth of Nectar points. These can be used at Sainbury’s, Argos & eBay to name a few but these pretty much cover 99% of things you’d ever want to buy…
