Great benefits include:

Step 1

Download the Southwest® Debit app to manage your account.

Step 2

Set up and make two direct deposits.

Easy peasy.

Step 3

Spend $100 in the first 90 days.

(You can do that, right?)

Spend, earn, vacay, repeat.

The more you use your Southwest Rapid Rewards Debit Card to shop and earn points, the closer you get to a vacay.

    1. 1Welcome bonus. You are eligible to receive a one-time bonus of 2,500 points when you satisfy all of the following requirements within 90 days of card account opening:
      • Establish and receive at least two direct deposits, recurring monthly or more frequently, and
      • Make at least $100 in Qualifying Purchases using your card within ninety (90) days of opening your card account.
    2. Qualifying Purchases are all purchases made using the card, excluding any ATM withdrawals, transactions that include cash back at point of sale, quasi-cash or cash-like transactions, peer-to-peer payment app transactions, lottery tickets, casino gaming chips or similar betting transactions, disputed or unauthorized purchases, returns, refunds, adjustments, or fees of any kind, including the monthly fee, if applicable (“Qualifying Purchases”).
The welcome bonus must be earned within ninety (90) days of card account opening. It will be transferred to your Southwest Rapid Rewards® Member Account (“Rapid Rewards® account”) within eight weeks after the 91st day from card account opening, provided your card account is open and in good standing at the time of transfer.
2Ongoing rewards. You can earn points on Qualifying Purchases you make using your card. You will earn one point for every $1 spent directly with Southwest Airlines®, including flight, inflight, Southwest® gift card, Getaways by Southwest™ packages, and purchases made on Southwest.com® or the Southwest Mobile App. Other Southwest Airlines related purchases, such as Southwest Charters and Southwest Cargo® are excluded. You will earn one point for every $1 of Qualifying Purchases spent on dining, and for every $1 of Qualifying Purchases spent on subscriptions (including utilities and streaming services). You will earn one point for every $2 spent on all other Qualifying Purchases. All points earned through the use of your card during a calendar month will be transferred to your Rapid Rewards® account after the close of each card account monthly statement.
We have the right in our sole discretion to determine whether a transaction is eligible to earn points, and have the right to deny points on a transaction that is deemed ineligible.

3No credit check required. Account opening subject to identity verification and application requirements.
  1. 4Anniversary bonus. You may receive bonus points based on the Qualifying Purchases you make each account anniversary year. Account Anniversary Year means the year beginning with your account open date through the close of business on the day before the 12-month anniversary of your account open date, and each 12-billing cycle thereafter. Provided your card account is open and in good standing, bonus points will be transferred to your Rapid Rewards account each Account Anniversary Year, as follows:
Annual Qualifying Purchases Bonus Points
$5,000.00 to $9,999.99 2,500
$10,000.00 to $14,999.99 5,000
$15,000.00+ 7,500
5Annual $35 statement credit. A statement credit will be applied to your account when your Card is used for Southwest Airlines flight purchases (excludes Upgraded Boarding and inflight purchases) up to a maximum of $35 per calendar year. Statement credit(s) will be applied to your card account balance up to 140 days after your qualifying Southwest Airlines flight purchase posts to your Account. The Annual $35 statement credit will be issued for the year in which the transaction posts to your account. For example, if you buy a Southwest Airlines flight ticket, but the airline does not post the transaction until after the current calendar year ends, the cost of the ticket will be allocated toward the following calendar year’s Annual $35 statement credit.
6Annual 7,500 Companion Pass® points bonus. You will earn one bonus of 7,500 Companion Pass qualifying points each calendar year. The bonus will be deposited into your Rapid Rewards account by January 31 each calendar year or up to 30 days after account opening.

Card account must be open, in good standing, and linked to an active Rapid Rewards Account at the time of transfer.
