If you’re considering a new credit card to maximize your rewards, your cellphone provider might not be the first place you look. However, if you are a Verizon customer, there is a card offer you may not know about that should definitely be on your radar.
For anyone seeking to amp up their rewards strategy and earn rewards by paying their Verizon bill, the Verizon Visa® Card will be a smart addition to your wallet. For a limited time only, the card offers up to $150 cash back† account opening offer, awarded to new cardholders, as follows:
- Receive $50 as a statement credit upon making your first purchase within 90 days after account opening.
- Receive an additional $100 statement credit after you spend $1,500 on the card in the first 90 days after account opening.
Note that you must be an account owner or an authorized manager of a Verizon Wireless or Verizon Fios account to apply for the card.
It has plenty of benefits, too, including the ability to earn 4% in rewards in multiple categories — a tempting return for a card with no annual fee*.
As someone who loves to get the most out of every transaction, I’m excited to dive deeper into why the Verizon Visa Card is a no-brainer for customers looking to maximize their savings and earnings at Verizon.

Once you’ve earned your Verizon Dollars, they can help you save on various services and products at Verizon. First and foremost, use them toward your monthly bills — you can redeem these valuable rewards directly to your Verizon phone, TV and internet bills. Your Verizon Dollars can also go a long way in getting the latest gadgets, too, as they can be redeemed toward new phones, tablets, smartwatches and an array of accessories, including phone cases, chargers, headphones, gaming devices and wearable technology.
Managing your rewards is also super easy. You can access those rewards through your online Verizon wireless account or by downloading the Verizon Visa Card mobile app. There, you can opt in to apply any available rewards to your Verizon account every month.
How to save each month
For even more savings, cardholders can sign up for Auto Pay for their Verizon bill. New Auto Pay enrollees can get up to $10 per month off each eligible wireless phone line, up to a maximum of 12 lines, and/or $10 per month off each eligible Fios service, up to $20 per month, depending on the combination of services you select§.
Verizon has made financing easy as well. Verizon Wireless customers can get 0% annual percentage rate financing with 36 equal monthly payments on their device purchase with the Verizon Visa Card**.

With offers like $150 cash back for new cardholders and 4% back in rewards on popular categories like gas, groceries and dining, it’s a great way to earn rewards and save on your monthly Verizon bill.
