If you’ve recently applied for a new credit card from Barclays, you may be working on earning a new cardmember welcome bonus. Barclays makes it easy to track your progress toward earning your bonus.
Here’s how you can track the status of your welcome bonus through the Barclays website or the Barclays mobile app.
Tracking your welcome bonus on the Barclays website
First, go to barclaycardus.com and log into your account. If you have multiple cards through Barclays, you can select the account you recently opened through the “View all accounts” dropdown. On the account home page, scroll down until you see the panel with your welcome bonus information and the “Manage Welcome Bonus” button. It will look something like the screenshot to the right. You can click on the “Rewards and Benefits” link at the top of the page.
Once you’re on the rewards and benefits page, you’ll see information on your progress toward your welcome bonus. The exact layout of the screen will differ by card. Here are a few examples of what the bonus progress panel looks like:
As you make progress toward earning your bonus, this tracker will update.
Tracking your welcome bonus in the Barclays US
You can also track your welcome bonus in the Barclays US mobile app. Simply click on “Rewards” to navigate to the rewards page in the app and you’ll see a screen that will display your progress toward a welcome bonus.
Bottom line
Earning a welcome bonus can be a great incentive to get a new credit card. But you want to be sure that you meet any requirements to earn the bonus—or you won’t get the points, cash back, or miles you’re expecting. Fortunately, Barclays makes it easy to track your welcome bonus through either its website or mobile app.
