Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is almost done! The last two weeks Greg, Nick, and Stephen competed to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines. But who completed the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?
Barclays has launched some targeted referral offers on the Wyndham Earner and Earner Plus cards that are terrific. The offer for the Earner Plus gives 75,000 Wyndham Rewards points after only $1,000 in spend, while the regular Earner card is offering 45,000 points on the same $1K in spend. Each of these referral offers is 50%+ better than the publicly available versions, so they are the offers that you’ll find on our Best Offers page.
It appears that most or all of those targeted have received e-mails inviting them to refer friends. They can then see the link in their Barclays account after clicking through the e-mail.
Since these offers are only available via referral, we’ll again be collecting reader referral links so we can share them with others, just like we’re doing with the Amex Platinum and Amex Gold cards. The details on how to participate with your link (if you are targeted) are below.

Quick Thoughts
This referral offer is targeted in that only some Wyndham card holders have the ability to generate a link good for this offer — but the offer itself is publicly available to anyone applying through a qualifying referral link (like the one on our Platinum card page). Those cardholders who have the ability to generate a 45K/75K link will see it advertised in the “Offers” section of their online card account.
We want your 75/45K offer referral links
Here on Frequent Miler, our Best Credit Card Offers page always links to the best available welcome bonus, even if that’s not an affiliate link.
However, we always present the offer that allows new applicants to earn the best available bonus, even when it doesn’t benefit our site through affiliate commissions. Seeing as Wyndham referral earnings are limited to 45,000 points per person and that’s maxed out after just a cthree referrals, we want to share the wealth by using readers’ referral links on the site. We need reader links for the 75K/45K offer.
If you’d like to have your referral link shared on the Best Offers page, here’s what you need to do:
Step 1: Check your referral link
You can find your referral link by logging in to your Barclays Wyndham account and clicking on the ‘Offers’ link at the top of the page and clicking on that. Note that you might need to change your card at the top of the page so that your Wyndham card is selected. Many folks have received e-mails for this referral offer and it could be that you can only see the offer screen when clicking through the e-mail.
Before sharing your referral link, please ensure that it generates a link to the offer giving new applicants 75,000 and 45,000 Wyndham Rewards points after $1,000 in purchases. We don’t know if all Wyndham consumer cardholders can generate that superior offer, so it’s worth checking first. It may be that it’s the standard referral offer for everyone, but please check regardless.
Step 2: Join the Frequent Miler Insiders Facebook group
If you’re already part of our Facebook group, you can skip this step. If you’re not a member though, you’ll need to join this group. Note that you’ll be asked a question or two (depending on if you try joining on mobile or desktop) to ensure you’re not a bot. Please answer that question(s), otherwise you won’t get admitted to the group in order to do step 3.
Step 3: Share your link on the dedicated thread
We have a dedicated thread set up to share your 75K/45K link, so please only share your referral links here at the bottom of the thread. We’ll then work our way through the links for as long as this increased offer is only available via referrals. We will rotate through links there regularly to try to give as many readers as possible a chance at picking up a referral bonus.
Please don’t share your referral link as an individual post in the group as it’ll just get deleted. Please also don’t share a non-75K/45K referral link as that’ll get deleted too.
Comments on the blog with links automatically get caught in our spam filter and will not post, so do not share your links in the comments here. Instead, that Facebook thread is the only place we’ll be accepting referral links (sorry if you’re not on Facebook).

Hi – please approve membership to the facebook group when you get a chance (my answer was “Maldives”)
Can you refer from the Business Earner card? Don’t see the “offers” link at all on the account.
I am interested in applying for the card. Where will I be finding the links to apply once you receive from the readers?
Just click on the card in the post and follow the application link. That will connect you to the current reader referral.
C’mon business version! I really hope that offer increases to 75k too or 90k would be even better! Do we think this is coming?
Any idea if there will be forthcoming offers for the Business cards?
Do these affiliate links generate any bonus for the referrer?
15k per up to 45k per year.
Thanks Satellite. Very interesting Barclays has started this.
It’s only until the end of June though.
