Our Review

With no annual fee and AT LEAST 1.5% (or 1.5x points) on all purchases, this is a great card to add to your wallet!

WHY WE RECOMMEND IT!

Although marketed as a “cash back” credit card, this card actually earns valuable Chase points! (For example, $300 cash back is the same as 30,000 points and 1.5% cash back is the same as 1.5x points on every purchase). These points can often be redeemed for more value when you move your points to a transferrable Chase credit card (the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card, the Chase Sapphire Reserve® or the Ink Business Preferred® Credit Card) and then transfer the points to airline and hotel partners like United, Hyatt, Southwest, Flying Blue and more.
