Depends on the card. Sapphire and UA i believe give a bonus, but that may only be when signing up originally.

1st 3 months of having the card?

so i guess it doesnt pay to add someone who never had a CC before to a starwood card bec they can never get the bonus then. Correct?

what would be my best bet. I have SP, Freedom, Ink, UA, Starwood.

Yes.

If all the cards were opened in the past 3 months, you can get 5k SP, 5K UA and 2.5K Freedom.

Is it points or a $25 credit ?
Points. Everything with UR is points, Chase usually uses a $ figure since they value UR at 1cpp.

If you have a Sapphire or Ink, it can be transferred over.

If someone has bad credit and I add them on as a authorized user which I have good credit 1) will his bad credit ruin my good credit? 2)will his credit be repaired in any way this way? 3) if yes which cc is the one to add him on to?

Thanks

1) No.

3) An old Citi or Chase card that has a low utilization ratio.
