Most card credits follow the calendar: monthly ones come back on the 1st, quarterly ones in January, April, July and October, and yearly ones on January 1. Whatever you don’t use before the period ends is gone. Here’s what runs out at the end of October 2026, for every card that’s open to new applicants.
Before you go through the list:
- Credits marked Activation required do nothing until you switch them on, so do that first.
- Statement credits can take a few days to post, but what counts is when you make the purchase. Buy before the period ends.
- Credits that reset on your card anniversary follow your own dates, so they aren’t listed here. Each card’s page says which is which.
- Credits you set up once and that then post by themselves (streaming and phone bills) are left out.
Ending for good this month
