If you're ready to hit the skies, a Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Card may be the next credit card in your wallet. With three great options, the Southwest Credit Card trio comes with a variety of perks and their exclusive loyalty program, Southwest Rapid Rewards. Southwest Credit Cards include the Southwest Rapid Rewards Plus Credit Card, Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier Credit Card, and Southwest Rapid Rewards Priority Credit Card. The next step is figuring out which one is right for you.

The Rapid Rewards program is the points program used by Southwest Airlines® and its partners. As a Rapid Rewards Credit Cardmember, you have access to a range of benefits that help you get the most from your travel and your card. Once you start using your card, you may earn points for every dollar spent on Southwest® flights, as well as with every dollar spent on the airline's hotel, car rental, and retail partners. In addition, Cardmembers may earn points through everyday purchases.

In addition to using points for reward flights, Cardmembers may also use their points for gift cards, merchandise, international flights on global carriers, hotel stays, rental cars, and exclusive Cardmember events. With the Rapid Rewards® program, your points don't expire as long as the account remains open, and if you're short on points to qualify for an experience, you may purchase more.

There are three different cards reflecting three different levels, but they all come with a standard set of features. Some of the standard airline credit card benefits include:

Each of the Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Cards comes with an introductory offer when you meet the spending requirements. For the latest information, visit the Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Card site.

All of the Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Cards offer bonus points after your Cardmember anniversary. For the latest information, visit the Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Cards site.

Cardmembers may earn points on flights made directly with Southwest Airlines and on everyday purchases made with Southwest partners.

Cardmembers may redeem their points for Southwest flights, gift cards, merchandise, international flights on global partner carriers, hotel stays, rental cars, and other exclusive Cardmember experiences.

The cards have no blackout dates, which gives you more options when booking a trip.

If you or an immediate Family Member check or carry-on luggage that is damaged or lost by the carrier, you're covered up to $3,000 per Passenger.

Get reimbursed for essential purchases like toiletries and clothing for baggage delays over six hours by passenger carrier up to $100 a day for three days.

Extend the time period of the U.S. manufacturer's warranty by an additional year, on eligible warranties of three years or less.
