Top Credit Card Higher than Normal Sign Up Bonuses for August 2019

Most significant offers ended in June, and the next big batch ends on October 31, 2019. However, there are some TD promotions ending September 3, 2019, which would be before my next update. So if you are thinking about signing up for those cards, you may want to move fast before the offer expires.

Featured Card

The TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card extended its 80,000 sign up bonus and first year fee waived offer, so they continue to be the featured card of the month.
