I know you didn’t ask, but personally I think if you dialed the transitions down in motion/quickness/harshness or made those larger faster transitions less frequent it would be a little easier to watch without feeling almost motion sick. Again this is just a personal opinion, absolutely no hate, and free advice if you want to take it into account.

Pair that with really straightforward UI/UX to manage your card and it’s really not that bad as a catch all card, or at least a secondary card.

My only gripe with Capital One is they don't seem to like me. The cards are super good though. Opened a SavorOne when my credit was average (mid 600s) and they only gave me $600. Fast forward to now in the low 800s and about $90k in revolving limits across a few banks they still won't raise it. I guess I could close it and re-apply to try and get out of their "bucket" system but I have annual fee waivers for AMEX Gold/Plat so I pay $0/yr for both of these. Once I start having to pay for those I'll probably try to get back in to the Cap1 cards.

One more thing with the chase sapphire preferred is that they offer an additional 10% of what you pay in points at the end of every anniversary year for your account opening. Basically if you spend $10000 with that card, you’ll get an extra 1000 points at the end of the year. Not a huge difference but this does help offset the annual fee a little bit.

The sign-up bonus for the CFU is really good right now so it is worth pursuing your trifecta.

The big downside to this card was the cap on rewards, I believe capped at $2,500 in spending every quarter. If you spend more than $10k a year on your card, it ends up being less rewards (multiplied by how much more you spend, like if 50k/yr then it's a massive difference). Also the 2% on everything is way more for me personally. Random things like car insurance, house repairs, etc add up to more than the 1% difference in the one 3% category

Could you do a video on how the credit age averages out? I’m a little confused on how it work. Will the age really matter if I leave a 5 year gap between card A and B? Or would a 6 month gap be better?

I would not put the gold card and the black card in the same category as the Apple card. That’s crazy to do that. I would put it in the F column.

You ranked the Amex Everyday Blue cashback card at B, but I’m wondering how you would rank the preferred version of that card?
@ErykFortuna8 ай бұрын
The citi double cash card does not have the standard welcome offer and you were lucky to find that it did when you were looking. I personally would rank the the Wells Fargo active cash above the double cash in A tier because it has the full time welcome bonus and it only takes $500 spent vs 1500 spent to get the $200 bonus on top of that.

Maybe I heard wrong, but the venture that is 100 dollar annual fee , doesn't give you 10000 miles every year and access to lounges etc... The venture X does but that's an annual fee of 400 dollars.

If Bilt adds a welcome offer than it right up to the S tier for them! Or if they remove the 5 transaction per billing cycle requirement which I forgot to mention here as well. But such a solid card overall and I love having it in my wallet 👍

Not a bad list but the sapphire reserve seems to be my favorite. Just the bonuses alone are worth over $1250 a year, TSA is worth a lot and it's 5x not 3x if bought through their rewards portal for traveling. You also need to compare the different visa bonuses which is important for traveling and insurances.
@dangardner845611 ай бұрын
To me the Saphire Reserve is by far the best - I make between $1500-2K a year using only this card and that's after my yearly premium payment for the card - but I pay the card off every month also....

Don’t get the Amex platinum if you don’t travel at all. For someone who travels abroad twice a year, that lounge access and other credits makes it the best card for traveling (though it is not good for everyday use). I do believe the Amex gold is the best for everyday use and the platinum for traveling. Those lounge access will save you lots of money from buying food at the airport and it will elevate your travel experience (which most people put on the side).

No hate, but I'm pretty certain this is a CapitalOne Ad lol. He mentions Identical benefits and price between the Savor One and the Autograph Card (Actually the autograph card gives an extra $100) and somehow Autograph gets B whereas SavorOne gets S (and in my opinion, plenty of other cards are better than the SavorOne). I dunno, can you go deeper into why you made that distinction?
@Daniel_Braun Жыл бұрын
It very much has to do with the greater upside value that the SavorOne card has in the Capital One ecosystem because the cash back on that card can be turned into more valuable miles for travel when paired with cards like the Venture or Venture X. Currently the Autograph card is just cash back, but that could be changing soon with potentially transfer partners! When the Autograph card gets transfer partners (if they are good) then it will get bumped up to the A or S tier. It’s really all just personal opinion as well here, so nothing wrong if you like the Autograph card more than the SavorOne. Both are excellent options, but SavorOne has more upside value at the moment 👍

Looks like I am hanging around B tier but 2 cards that I found that I never see in rankings on the two AAA credit cards. You don't need a membership for them and you can choose either one. The travel card is 5% on gas, 3% resturant/grocery, and 1% everything else along with no travel exchange fees. The Daily Advantage is 5% grocery, 3% pharmacy/gas, and 1% everythign else. I have one, my wife the other, and we rake in cashback with them like crazy.
