Our Verdict
Standard bonus is 20,000 points but we’ve seen 30,000 points and 20,000 + $100 before as well. In terms of the value of Amtrak points they are as follows:
- Non-Acela tickets points are worth 2.9¢ each
- Acela tickets points are worth 2.56¢ cent
For more information on best uses and valuation read this post. This can be a valuable bonus for those that take advantage of/enjoy train travel. If you have any questions about Bank of America credit cards I’d recommend reading this post first. I will be adding this to our list of the best credit card bonuses. This offer certainly isn’t for everybody, but it is great for some people (nearly $900 in non-acela tickets).
