Sweet 16s

A Sweet 16’s venue, catering, and entertainment spend is card-payable — enough to earn the points for a memorable milestone trip.

A Sweet 16 is a milestone worth celebrating well — and the venue, catering, entertainment, and photography that make it special add up to card-payable spend that can earn the points for a memorable family trip. The party you’re planning can quietly fund a getaway to remember the year by.

Here’s how.

The party spend earns

Sweet 16s concentrate venue, catering, entertainment, and photography into card-payable deposits. The venue and catering payments are anchors for a card’s minimum spend; concentrate the celebration onto one bonus card, with entertainment, decor, and attire adding more.

Aim at a milestone trip

Transferable points fund a milestone family trip and let you choose the destination by transfer-partner value. Coordinate payments within the family so the large deposits land on the earning card.

Time and travel

Line the card’s spend window up with the deposit dates, and use an FX-fee-free card if celebrating or traveling abroad.

Map it with the planner
