Preface
I wanted to leave my referral in this forum, but didn't want to post 11 different referrals when I have one link that can be used for 11 different products. Additionally, it doesn't help that offers change from time to time, so I would have to continually re-post my referral to keep it visible in the most recent thread. Therefore, I encourage others to follow my lead and just list all your referrals in one post.
As noted previously, my referral link will allow you to apply for 11 different cards. For all of these cards, I receive a 30,000 point referral bonus if you use my link and are approved. To switch between cards, you will find all options at the bottom of the webpage.
Where noted, earn rates will be changing from 15 April 2019, and a full rundown of the changes per card – including current rates – can be found here.
