Signup bonus: 50,000 points after $3,000. We never count unearned bonuses in savings math — a bonus you don't clear is worth zero. Spend by 31 January 2027. That is a fixed calendar deadline, not a window that starts when you apply, so it gets shorter every month you wait. Limited-time offer; ends 2027-01-31. Bonus figure confirmed on the issuer's page 2026-09-14.

Does the fee earn out? · how we got this
The $95 fee minus $0 in printed credits leaves $95/yr to earn back through rewards — roughly $3,167 of travel spending at 3x (valuing USAA points at the same mid-range value the optimizer uses). Whether that clears depends on your actual spending.
