The Priceline Rewards Visa is currently offering a $150 statement credit after first purchase on a newl, but y-approved card. This card is not terribly rewarding, but a hundred and fifty bucks is a decent bonus on a single purchase and thus it might be interesting for those looking on the fringes for new bonus opportunities.

Quick Thoughts
This card isn’t very rewarding at all for ongoing spend. The Priceline Rewards Visa offers just 1x on most purchases. Even with 10% back on redemptions against eligible travel & Priceline.com purchases, that’s only a return of 1.1% on most purchases if we’re counting that rebate as generously as possible. That’s awful.
It does offer 5x points on eligible Priceline.com spend, which could be a solid return combined with 10% back when redeeming points for a statement credit against travel & Priceline purchases. I hate the minimum $25 redemption since it means that you’ll never redeem all of your points (since you’ll get that 10% back that can’t be redeemed until you have another $25). However, a hundred and fifty bucks is a decent cash back bonus on a card that has no annual fee and only requires a single purchase. A pack of gum could get you $150 and that’s not a bad trade if you’ve run through most of the major card bonuses.
Barclays has been a bit of a wild card in terms of approvals over the past couple of years and I’d sooner want their Wyndham cards (particularly the business one) or an Aviator Red, but this will surely appeal to some.
