Capital One added a major kicker to a card’s early spend bonus — and it can earn you a whopping 350,000 bonus Miles.But you’ll probably need some pretty deep pockets to get there.
Capital One Venture X Business Early Spend Bonus
The Capital One Venture X Business offers a two-pronged approach for earning 350k bonus Miles:
- First, you’ll earn 150,000 bonus Miles after spending $30,000 on eligible purchases within three (3) months of being approved for card membership.
- Next, you can earn an additional 200,000 Miles after you spend a total of $200,000 within the first six (6) months.

The 150k bonus miles for $30k in spending was the card’s previous welcome offer. The 200k bonus for $200k total spending is an additional kicker.
So, even if this card was on your radar for a while and you wanted to apply, you’re not losing out on anything if you can’t meet the two hundred grand.
The Cap One Venture X Business earns at least 2X Miles per dollar spent on eligible purchases. That means you’ll earn 400,000 Miles simply through organic spending (if you hit the $200,000 spending requirement in your first six months). Add those 400,000 Miles to your 350,000 bonus and you suddenly have 750,000 Miles.
So, if your company has some big-time expenses coming up (tax bill, major purchases, etc.), you can make out like gangbusters with this offer.
