No, you cannot combine your Lufthansa Credit Card signup bonus miles with your companion ticket. The Lufthansa Credit Card companion ticket may not be combined with any other promotion, discount add-ons or coupons.
As the primary Lufthansa Credit Card cardholder, you can receive an Economy Class Companion ticket upon first use of your new account for a purchase and on the account opening anniversary every year thereafter as long as your account remains open and in good standing. The Lufthansa Credit Card also offers an initial bonus of 50,000 miles after spending $3,000 within the first 90 days and paying the annual fee.

If you are traveling on Lufthansa's "Economy Light" product, you are allowed one piece of carry-on baggage. This fare includes no free baggage allowance, however, a piece of checked baggage can be added to your booking for a fee.

Cardholders also get an initial bonus of 20,000 miles after spending $1,000 in the first 3 months. This card has a 0% foreign transaction fee, too.
