I Ranked Every Credit Card (Here’s What’s ACTUALLY Good)

In this video we are ranking over 30 credit cards in a tier list so that you can see which ones are overrated and which ones are actually the best credit cards that are worth getting! Each credit card in this tier list has been reviewed very carefully based not only on things like the welcome bonus and spending multipliers, but also the benefits of each credit card as well as the overall value it should give you. I tried my best to cover every credit card, but in order to do that I had to generalize some stuff because there are literally hundreds of credit cards on the market! The cards in this video were the most popular, so hopefully focusing on those credit cards will help you to make better decisions about which ones to get.
I’m also ranking the credit cards in this tier list based on my unbiased opinion, and I tried to account for how the average person will be able to use each credit card. This list is constantly changing as issuers release new products and update their current credit cards; but for now, these are the worst and best credit cards on the market.
This “Credit Cards Ranked” video style was a lot of fun to make, so let me know if you would like to see more credit card rankings in the future!

The way that you go from one card to the next is interesting, often choosing the next card with somewhat similar features, rather than just simply going through each card family one by one. It kept me eager to see what card would come next.

[@sjg6158]

Thanks for the hard work on this Dan. That looked like a lot of work to go through all of that.

[@Riverbend1752]

Looks like I have a pretty average portfolio of cards, but that's perfect for my needs right now. I'm living very frugally while building an emergency fund, so I have limited spending and don't travel enough to justify any annual fee card. What Daniel says at the end of the video about everyone's situation being different is incredibly important to remember as you go along your journey.

[@kessarychlick2117]

What card do you prefer because I live very frugally as well.. I only buy groceries and gas

[@Riverbend1752]

@@kessarychlick2117 Currently, I have a Discover Cash Back (occasional useful categories), Chase Freedom Unlimited (1.5% catch-all), the Costco card (already have a membership, and it gets 4% on gas), and a card with my local credit union that I hope to upgrade soon to one that will be a 2% catch-all. Eventually, I plan to get a better card for groceries (probably the SavorOne if it/the environment haven't changed drastically at the time I apply).

[@mileshubert862]

Amex Gold

[@user-lb3ml3tt5f]

Venture X vs CSR value proposition varies highly depending on what airports you frequent. My home airport is BOS and my secondary airport is PVD, which makes Saphire lounge access at Logan and priority pass experience credits at Logan and Providence extremely valuable. If your home airport is DFW, then the capital one lounge access might be more valuable.

[@KevinYang]

Pretty much with you on all of the rankings in general! I definitely need to consider the SavorOne as I (maybe) close out my Amex Green which was amazing in the first year given the welcome bonus, but like you mentioned doesn't see THAT much value otherwise. Would love the Amex Gold but with the new welcome bonus changes, out of luck. Both the Amazon Prime and Bilt cards are great to have, but also not sure if they're worth burning a 5/24 slot for, so we'll see! Awesome breakdown Daniel!

[@waterfoker8558]

Don't close ur CC, even if you don't use them, unless there's annual fee upkeep, then get rid of them. Keep your credit line high

Agree with pretty much all of your picks here Daniel! The Capital One Duo is super underrated so cool to see it getting some love from you in the S Tier. The only changes I would make is potentially adding the Bilt Card to the S Tier & the Aspire a bit higher, but overall these were great picks & everyone has different travel/spending preferences. Great video as always Daniel!

[@stevemarshall3508]

I messed up my credits real bad back in 2020. Im just now building it back again and not being reckless. I had a capital one secured card and just got upgraded to an unsecured card and my score is now a little over 700. Im also getting an apartment next month and I’m very interested in the BILT credit cards. Do you think it’s a hard to get approved for??? Especially with my history

[@Jiggy609]

The Bilt is truly S tier..just booked a hotel in Italy with Hyatt points transfer.. all earned from paying for the roof over my head!

[@MattWelterOfficial]

@@Jiggy609 Love that!!

[@JulianLamme]

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.

[@TheBrentonJones]

Savor one sounds like the easiest and most efficient for me. Thanks for the list!! This is exactly how I make decisions in video games and now with my finances lollll love a good tier list.

[@MikeMaye]

I'm still FIRST, But to business, I am right now carrying the CSP, CFU, Amex Gold, and VX which I recently picked up with 90K bonus. I am really loving my VX more than I thought I would, but I will see how it fairs after the first year. Your Ranking is about right! Great vid as always Daniel💥

Mannnn I know how hard this video must have been to make 🤣 Just trying to figure out where to start is TOUGH. Also I’ve heard of a few people who actually got that Luxury Card and I remember whoever told me about it, didn’t have the heart to tell them it was a bad card 😂 Great Rankings here Daniel! Some of these I never had an opinion on so it was good to see your insights on them, especially the U.S. Bank Cards. And I think you’re spot on with the Platinum for most people 100%

[@nicoschmidt7618]

I actually have a US Bank card, since it was the bank I grew up with and it's a perfect card for my current situation as a college kid, already tied to my bank, and with surprisingly good cashback and no foreign transaction fees. It helped me get a decent card as my first one rather than another bad bank card or student card. I do not think I will continue to use it much once I am out of college and add better travel program cards and things like custom cash, but have definitely appreciated it so far.

[@flogar9850]

Thank you for this super clear overview, much appreciated! Also thank you for not over-ranking the Amex Platinum which has become a joke in my opinion (let's not forget that despite the $700 annual fee, you now have to pay $50 per guest to get access to airport lounges, and that includes YOUR OWN KIDS. Ridiculous).

[@MontyTheCardNerd]

How you're able to plug so many of your other detailed card/duo/trifecta videos shows what an impressive catalogue you've built. Love the content as usual!

Great video Daniel! I have a better understanding of what cards I should apply to. I have question, Capital One offers a “Savor One for good credit” card for those who don’t qualify for the Savor One. What are your thoughts on cards for good credit that Capital One is offers? Is it worth applying for? Thank you!

Daniel, do you consider Chase UR points to be worth more than Cap One points/miles? Seems like the Cap One duo has better spending multipliers than Chase, but it’s all for naught if the points aren’t as useful/valuable! I know it depends on the use case but what’s your opinion? Thanks

[@pancholol2x]

straight to it I like this

[@faylinameir]

Good video! I stick with no annual fee cards and I figure once I average it out I don't earn anymore than I would if I paid for a card like the amex or whatever. Gotta know how you personally spend money. I got the chase prime card, red card, citi double cash, citi costco visa, scheels card (only signed up for that bonus lol), discover card which I've had for ages, and a few local cards. Works for me because I know what I buy.

[@RonnieNapkin]

Capital One Venture and Amex Gold were the best decisions I made for myself. Surprised you didn’t mention the standard Venture card! Nevertheless, took me about a week getting used to ‘what card gets swiped where’, but it’s just muscle memory now and I’m reeling in the points between each card!

[@BiologicalGibbon]

Great video, Daniel! If Bilt adds a welcome offer, even as much as 15k points, I'm giving up my 5/24 status even though I have been waiting for a CSP for so long ha!

[@Daniel_Braun]

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 👍

[@BiologicalGibbon]

@@Daniel_Braun Solid shout on the 5 transactions! Not about if I can or cannot do them, but there's this invisible pressure to do it within the month!

[@rodi4850]

With credit cards there's always a balance between what you gain and what new behavior is incentivised. In the end they are designed for you to spend more not less 👀

[@YoutubeSupportOfficialUS]

Agreed. That’s why I like a simple 2% card and paying balance off every month so I’m not incentivized for any particular purchase.

[@countercuIture]

That's why I feel like my Freedom Unlimited is so good for me and also why I'm eyeing the Freedom Flex. I don't travel and am focusing on earning points for cash back by using my card for everyday purchase. I earn hundreds of dollars every couple months, it's great

[@OCLex]

great video 🤞🏼😁

[@mikeymcpeters7266]

This is a really cool video! I find i have a lot of c tier credit cards but I do use a different strategy to take advantage of it in a different way. I go for no annual fee, 0% intro PURCHASE APR, some type of signup bonus, and a reward rate of some form. I actually get most of these through mail ins. What i do is i put my usual purchases on a %0 apr card, save the amount i owe on that card on a 5% high yield savings account, pay minimum monthly payments, then pay the whole balance off as the intro APR is about to expire. You collect rewards, signup bonus, and interest with this method. I only do cash reward or statement credit rewards as well.

[@Daniel_Braun]

Thanks Mikey! That's a really strategic process you having going on, but that makes sense if you're keeping track of everything and managing it well 👍

[@welbyncastro9169]

You do know that your credit utilization makes up 30% of your credit score. It sounds like your maxing out the card and using all if not most of your credit limit. That will drop your score drastically including the credit hit by applying for the card.

Would you be able to do a tier list for those of us that have to book through applications like Concur? It’s quite common in business settings. I found the reserve to be my favorite because it gave me 3x back on all my work trip spend categories. I feel like there are better cards though.

[@jwil4286]

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.

[@dangardner8456]

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....

[@ZXY-tg5ip]

It’s wild for me. I actually find the Amex green card as my s tier card instead of the gold. Especially since I am near a city so the 3x on all travel is awesome.

[@Daniel_Braun]

For people living around a city then the Green card can definitely earn some good points! I really just wish they either had some credits or a lower annual fee + a better sign up bonus. For the right person, the Green card can be good - but I still see the Gold as the better option for most people (assuming the credits make sense for them). Appreciate hearing some of your perspective because it's gonna be different for everyone! 👍

[@itstayayg193]

Whats your honest assessment on the AMEX Plat if I have a $150 AF credit due to having a corporate card? Is it worth it vs a 0 fee card?

[@ctbt1832]

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.

[@richard1113]

Interesting rankings and I agree with many of your picks. But I would move some of these around. For instance, the BILT card is specifically for a renter which really limits its appeal. Same for the Hilton card, the Ink card, and other special case cards. I would put these at a C tier. The Apple Card is most definitely NOT a D tier card. Are their some minor problems with it? Sure. But its utility of being a 2% card doesn't change.

[@avres13]

Personally, I like the Apple card when I’m at work because if I eat in the cafeteria which will have a pizza oven a grill and full kitchen, Chase and Citibank don’t consider a restaurant but as a hospital purchase. But since they have Apple Pay, I at least get 2% back when I decide I want some ribs and a salad for lunch. Seems to work well with my setup with my other 4 cards

[@wingsuitzero]

I think the D grade is harsh. The physical card? Yes but when you do Apple Pay you universally get 2% which is up there with the best cash rewards cards out there. Not to mention Apple Card has the absolute top tier UI.

I think your odds are good. But you can also look online for pre-approval and pre-qualification with any bank to see if the odds are in your favor. With Chase, you can also make an appointment with the bank to meet and better your relationship with them and to see if they can advise you further. The sign-up bonus for the CFU is really good right now so it is worth pursuing your trifecta.

[@WeiliXu88]

I always have a question about different rewards programs - a simple question that has bothered me for years is whether it is worth getting a freedom unlimited for 1.5 chase rewards vs. getting a nonchase rewards card for their x2 points. I don't have unlimited spending in a year. If my points are scattered in multiple programs, then it is difficult to redeem any good rewards for a year or two. With that mindset, I tend to rate trifecta effect more than just credit card ranking.

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.

[@siumaka]

Remarkable that you cover so many so quickly. Would love to know how you rank BOA cards too. AAA cards?

[@Daniel_Braun]

Thanks! Haha yeah I tried to cover a lot here so I had to keep things moving. Obviously there's still a ton of cards that I could cover like those - I'd say for BoA cards like the Customized Cash and the AAA card, those would go in the B tier as solid cash back options. The thing about no annual fee cash back cards is that there's usually little to dislike, but the upside is limited compared to travel rewards. So those would be some examples of more solid B tier cards that I think are worth it for people on Team Cash Back!

Any thought about the AAA credit cards? I feel like they'd fit in high B considering no annual/foreign fees and solid 5/3/1 cash back percentages, but no travel perks.

Stupid question but does a business have to get a “business” card or can they get any credit card under the business name?

What is the best credit card to use on gas purchases for team travel?

I got an AmEx Platinum a year ago because I heard it was a good card and worth it but I’ve been kinda disappointed it doesn’t give me much value for restaurants and groceries. This video is how I’m finding out that Gold does give value on those things. Guess I need to get a gold now

What tier would the Capital One Venture go? I feel like it’s comparable to the Sapphire Preferred as a stand alone card and not compared incorporating the trifecta. So either A or B tier. Yes?

What are your thoughts on Bank of America Cash Back? 1% All Purchases 2% On Groceries 3% on your select category. 200$ welcome bonus If you bank with BoA or use their investment branch Merill Edge, if you have 25k stored or higher, it improves the cash back. 100k is where it caps out. Over 2% on all other purchases Over 3%on Groceries Over 5% on your select category. Any thoughts on this?

I use BofA Premium Rewards card with $95 annual fee with $200 in Airport Incidental/TSA benefit and since I'm BofA Platinum tier I essentially get 3.5% back on travel and dining and 2.62% back on everything else. This is extremely hard to beat with anything else. All the other hoops and carrying a deck of cards just to maximize benefits seems stupid.

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?

[@Daniel_Braun]

I actually explained this in a bit more detail with an example in the middle of this video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ_beJedbbyUaq8

Citi custom is s tier 5% back on any one category Get another 2 citi cards and project change them to custom Now you have 3 cards giving you 5% categories. Then you get an aaa travel for 5% gas Then the other aaa for 5% on groceries. Thats now 5 categories at 5% If you need more Get us bank + which gives you 5% in 2 categories but have to activate each month. If you need more get a different us bank card and project change them to us cash+ for 9 categories that will cover 95% of all your spending.

[@StrictlyFacts24]

How so? I’m interested. Thank you

[@neighner2392]

I thought they wouldn't do a product change to a card if you already have one of that kind??

[@waterboy5164]

I have 2 of them but I have heard of people having 4 of them. The best roi is chasing sign on bonuses for cards that cover a specific category that you will use. And just get 2 cards a year. I get 400+ dollars a year in sign on bonuses plus whatever my cards % I make. The problem is everywhere I go now charges more money to use a cc so just having a card I get the sign on bonus with and throw the rest in the sock drawer. I have some cards I use 1-2x per year just so they cant close my accounts

[@kellygarrity5876]

Do you have a video explaining what order you should get cards within each brand? For example in your opinion is it better to get the American Expresses Gold card first (that has a bigger sign up bonus) or start with one of the cards that are “lower” like the everyday blue card.. referring to the sign up bonuses you get from each and then work your way up ! I’m unsure of how to maximize the sign up bonuses within company. Thanks in advance! Love your content Daniel!

Within each different credit card company **

What makes the freedom flex better than the sapphire preferred besides the sign up bonus?

[@jorgeanacleto6827]

Savor One is a great card , i agree . I combine it with quicksilver and Venture one
