Verizon's rolling out some tempting offers for new home internet customers, and savvy travelers should pay attention! They're dangling free Nintendo Switches, $250 Amazon gift cards, and even $200 Verizon gift cards to lure you in. Before you jump, though, there's a catch: you typically need to keep the service for at least 180 days. If you cancel early, they'll claw back the value of those freebies.
So, why does this matter to you, the award traveler? Well, those gift cards can be used to offset travel expenses! Think Amazon for travel gear, or Verizon credit to pay your phone bill while racking up those sweet sweet credit card rewards. Even after paying for the internet service, you'll likely come out ahead if you snag one of the better offers. The key is to check what's available in your area, as deals seem to vary. Head over to Verizon's website and see if you can score some freebies to fuel your next adventure.
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
