Automatic travel credit with Venture X

I already knew about calling within 24 hours to request a price match, but I wasn’t aware there was also an automatic travel credit feature. Pretty happy with this so far, liking the Venture X card and how the travel portal benefits are working out.

Approved for Venture X after earlier Venture card approval, can both sign-up bonuses apply?
