Sony Card Offers $200 Sign Up Bonus
The Chase Sony Card is a good card to keep for most of us, although the cash back program is not so good as the Chase Freedom Card or Discover More Card. The reason is very simple-the Sony Card is always offering great sign-up bonus and great cash back promotion each year in the March or April. For example, in 2007 many Sony Card members received $100 statement credit without any requirement. And in 2008, the Sony Card is offering 10,000 bonus points for spending more than $500 in a month which is equal to $100 cash back!
I have some posts about sign-up bonuses from the Chase Sony Card: $150 Bonus from Chase Sony Card and Get A Sony DSLR A350K for $449 with New Sony Card Approval. Today I realized that the Sony Card is offering $200 bonus at www.sonystyle.com. The link is here. If you go to the www.sonyrewards.com, you can only get a $50 bonus link. So if you want to get a new Sony Card, you’d better follow my link to sonystyle.com and then submit your application.
How to get the $200 bonus?
Your first single sales receipt purchase made at a SonyStyle store, including SonyStyle.com equal or greater than $299 (”Qualifying Purchase”) will automatically qualify you for a $100 Statement Credit. A $100 card credit will be applied to your Sony Card account 8-12 weeks after your first purchase (first purchase does not include balance transfer or balance transfer checks) account must be open and not in default at the time of fulfillment.
You will qualify for an additional $100 card credit if you charge to your Sony Card account a total of $1,500 or more by March 31, 2009. To qualify for these card credits, your account must be opened by 12/31/08 and first purchase must be made by 1/31/09. The additional $1,500 spend must be completed by 03/31/2009. The second credit of $100 will be applied 8-10 weeks after the qualifying period (3/31/2009).
The process to get the $200 bonus seems complicated but it’s still a good credit card deal to catch not to mention that the Chase Freedom Card has already changed the cash back program for new card approvals.

Do we need to make the $299 purchase at Sonystyle.com to qualify for the first $100 credit?
Yes, $299 is required to get the first $100 bonus.
But do we have to spend it at SONYSTYLE.COM to get the credit?
SonyStyle store or SonyStyle.com.
To get the 2nd $100, it said you need to spend at least $1500 by March 31, 2009. Let’s say I spend $300 @ sonystyle.com, does that mean that I need to spend at least $1200 more to qualify for the 2nd $100 bonus credit? And is that $1500 have to be spent only at sonystyle.com or could I it be use to other merchants/stores and be still qualify for the 2nd $100 credit? Thanks in advance for you help.
The second $1200 doesn’t have to be spent at sonystyle.com.
