Nomadic Matt's Points & Miles Update

{NAME}, Hello from NYC! The holiday season is in full swing here! The city is just absolutely magical this time of year. While I'm not a huge consumer, I do find this time of the year great for getting a new card because, with all the gift buying, it's easier to hit welcome bonuses. Here's what's new in the card world: First, a certain business card is offering $900 cash back as a welcome offer. I can't name the card because of weird bank email rules, but [it's listed here under the Featured Offers]() section. There's also no annual fee either! Second, don't forget I'm speaking at the upcoming [The Travel Summit](=) conference in April. This conference in Toronto is dedicated to points and miles. There will be Q&As, workshops, mixers, and tons of presentations! The conference is April 26–28, 2024. Tickets are $399 CAD and [you can get your ticket here](=). Use code NOMADICMATT to get $25 off. Third, if you're doing online shopping, be sure to use [Rakuten](). It's an app and browser plugin that gives you added discounts on shopping. I use it all the time to get up to 20% off. They also have tons of travel partners so I'm always using it to get added savings on accommodation and flight bookings. You can get paid in cash back or Amex points.
