The public Capital One Shopping portal (which does not require having a Capital One account) is out with some interesting targeted “Home Page Bonus Offers” for some people. Sadly, I don’t see these on my own account, but others are seeing offers as good as $250 back on a hotel booking of $250 or more. There are numerous other targeted offers like $100 back on $250 at Trip.com or $30 back on $50 at Walmart that some users are seeing, so it could certainly be worth a look.
As you can see above, these “Home Page Bonus Offers” are on the Capital One Shopping home page between the daily deal near the top and the beginning of other targeted offers. They are displaying in a grey box in my wife’s account (with a link at the bottom to expand the box and show more of the home page bonus offers).
My wife is seeing mostly lukewarm offers, though $30 back on $50 at Walmart and $50 back on $100 at Sam’s Club are great deals.
Greg found more useful travel offers in his account, like $100 back on $200 at Hotels.com, $100 back on $250 at Trip.com, and other interesting options.
Doctor of Credit reports that some users have been targeted for $250 back on a hotel booking of $250 or more. We haven’t seen that on any of our accounts on the Frequent Miler team.
Oddly, I don’t have home page bonus offers at all on my account, and neither does Stephen (though, again, other members of my family have them). We don’t know why or how these offers have been targeted, but it is worth knowing that they are there.
The terms for these offers indicate that you can only use one of each “offer type”, as in one travel offer, and then you won’t be able to activate a second travel offer. It’s anybody’s guess as to what “type” of offer a Macy’s Offer is versus a Walmart offer versus some other retailer.

I never saw them on my home page, but did get $250 off $250 hotels and $250 off $250 off concert tickets via email offers. Used both and got emails for both offers confirming I had used them within 2-3 days. Just waiting for them to credit (versus being pending). For both, there were several website options to book once I clicked through the offer. I used Priceline for the hotel offer and Stubhub for the concert tickets. Great deal since both were bookings I was going to make anyway.
I had $250 off $250 spend on event tickets. Must be $250 before taxes/fees. Just bought a $320 suite basketball ticket with food and drink that was $257 before taxes. Screen recorded the full thing as well.
I had a few of these including the $30 back from $50 at Walmart which came in handy. They were mostly things I’ve been browsing recently ($50 from $100 @ Hoka was a good one) so stands to reason if you’ve looked at hotels maybe you got lucky with the $250/$250 back offer.
No luck on that one but I’m seeing Get $300 back when you spend $1000 on British Airways. Not sure if it’s worth the hassle as I’ve never tried shopping through Capital One Shopping before
I see some of these (e.g. Walmart) but whado I do to use them? I click through and the Walmart site is there but no indication of the offer. Does it magically appear when checking out?
This is a generic problem with Capital oNe offers.
Thanks.
