for awhile bilt was offering people 5x points in their first month. Not sure if still are (wasn’t publicly disclosed when applying to read up on forums) but it’s a great no fee card especially if you pay rent (and I think they’re adding mortgages soon)

Bunch of transfer partners like Chase and Amex have

Depends on your spend categories, if you travel a lot, I recommend Venture X. Happy to refer and answer any questions as well - feel free to DM.

Check amex gold offers, it’s a solid card

Have you considered the Amex Plat? Bonuses range from 80-150K. Lmk if you want a referral.

I have Amex Gold referral for 75k
