  • Accelerated earn categories are subject to an annual spending cap before reverting to the base earn rate
  • Travel benefits are more limited than those offered by premium travel rewards credit cards

🌾 My Rewards

3x points (1.5%) on groceries, gas, streaming, subscriptions & entertainment. 1.5x on everything else. No fee.

How the rewards work

Groceries, Gas receive the strongest estimated return at 1.5%. Purchases outside the accelerated categories earn an estimated 0.75%.

What the annual cost means

There is no annual fee to recover, which can make the card easier to keep for credit-history length or occasional use. Interest and other transaction fees can still apply.

Who it may suit

This card is most relevant for someone who spends consistently on groceries and gas and prefers to avoid a yearly fee.

What to examine before applying

Compare the purchase interest rate, foreign-transaction fee, approval requirements, reward limits, and insurance certificates. Pay particular attention to merchant-category rules because a store may not receive the reward rate its products appear to suggest.
