As far as student credit cards go, the Capital One Savor Student Cash Rewards Credit Card is a winner.
It’s got the most bonus categories of any student cash back rewards credit card, with 8% cash back for Entertainment booked through Capital One Entertainment, 5% cash back on travel booked via Capital One Travel, 3% cash back on dining, entertainment, popular streaming services and at grocery stores (excluding superstores like Walmart and Target) and 1% cash back on all other eligible purchases.
You’ll also get a small cash bonus when you meet the terms of the Early Spend Bonus with your new card.
Most importantly, you’ll be building credit while also earning valuable rewards with no annual fee.
If you don’t spend a lot on dining, entertainment, streaming services and at grocery stores, you might prefer the Capital One Quicksilver Student Cash Rewards Credit Card, which lacks bonus categories but earns 1.5% cash back on all eligible purchases – 0.5% more than the Savor One Student credit card on non-bonused spend.
In short, it’s one of the best student credit cards around.
