Best Western Amex Offer: $50 back on $250, but only for US/Canada stays

The new Amex Offer gives $50 back when you spend $250 or more on room rate and room charges at Best Western or SureStay properties in the US and Canada. The threshold counts taxes and other room charges, not just the base rate, which makes this easier to hit than a typical portal bonus. It expires August 31, 2026, and is targeted, so check your Amex offers. If your stay exceeds $500 and you have the offer on multiple household cards, ask the hotel to split payment to stack statement credits. Reservations must be booked via bestwestern.com, the Best Western To Go app, or by phone, and the offer excludes specific properties including WorldHotels.

the play

Register your Amex card for this offer, then book a qualifying US or Canada stay before August 31, 2026, and split the payment across cards if your total exceeds $500.

TAP stopover: free 10-day break in Portugal, no extra fare cost.

TAP Air Portugal's stopover program lets you add Lisbon or Porto (and sometimes Terceira in the Azores) to any cash fare routing through Portugal for up to 10 days at zero additional ticket cost. Available on one-way, round trip, and multi-city bookings, but award tickets are excluded. Booking also unlocks a 25% discount code on a separate TAP domestic flight (routes like Lisbon to Funchal or Faro) valid only during the stopover period. The discount applies to base fare and YQ surcharge only, not taxes.

the play

Search your TAP cash itinerary on flytap.com and select the "Add a free Stopover" option when it appears to lock in up to 10 days in Portugal plus a 25% off domestic flight code.

Bilt's Wells Fargo exit: collections notices, 60-point drops. Verify your credit now.

Bilt's transition from Wells Fargo to Cardless triggered erroneous collection notices for some older accounts issued by Evolve Bank. Cardholders report 60-point credit score drops and accounts sent to Tate & Kirlin Associates despite zero balances. Bilt says it is working with the collection agency and that incorrect credit reporting will be removed within 2-5 business days, but the damage to mortgage approvals is already done for some.

Check your credit reports for Bilt-related inaccuracies and dispute any erroneous collections immediately.
