Chase Will Let you “Pay Yourself Back”
Chase Sapphire Preferred cardmembers can always use their points to book travel via the travel portal where they get 1.25 cents per point.
Now, you can redeem in the same manner for selected rotating categories. Instead of using a “portal” to make the purchases, you just pay as you normally would and then go into the Chase website to “pay” for that purchase with points. You will get the same 1.25 cents per point in value as you get booking travel. The feature is branded “Pay Yourself BackSM“.
The only requirement is that the merchant category be in one of the specified categories and you must “Pay yourself back” within 90 days of purchase.
Chase Sapphire Reserve cardmembers get the same opportunity, but at a higher 1.5 cents per point cash-out rate.
If you apply for a Chase credit card and don't get an instant approval, you may want to call the Chase reconsideration line.
Note: You will only be approved for a Chase credit card if you have applied for fewer than 5 personal credit cards within the last 24 months from any issuer. (Business cards do not count against the total, except for Capital One and Discover, but are subject to the policy). Learn more about the 5/24 rule here.
You also cannot be approved for a Sapphire Preferred if you currently have this card or a Sapphire Reserve card and/or if you have received a bonus on this card in the past 48 months.

This business card offers 2x on all purchases and 5X miles on hotel and rental car booked via Capital One Travel.
You can use your miles to get reimbursed for any travel purchase on your card or redeem your miles by booking a trip through Capital One Travel at a value of one cent per point for an effective 2% cash back on all purchases - or transfer them to a range of airlines and hotel partners.
It also has a $100 credit for Global Entry or PreCheck once every 5 years.
NOTES:
1) The bonus value for the early spend bonus on this card assumes you will transfer the points to miles. If you use as a rebate on travel spend, the early spend bonus value will be $500, exactly.
2) 5X on Hotels and Car Rentals applies only when you book via Capital One's own travel service. Otherwise, you will earn the standard 2X miles.
You can transfer to more than 18 airline and hotel partners. See the full list of Capital One Miles transfer partners and transfer times.

The Chase Freedom Flex is the evolution of the Chase Freedom card, long a staple of the Chase card portfolio.
0% APR Intro Offer:
0% Intro APR for 15 months from account opening on purchases and balance transfers, then a variable APR of 19.24% - 27.99%.
The Freedom Flex takes the best part of the Chase Freedom (rotating quarterly 5X bonus categories) and adds a ton of new features:
Chase Freedom Flex Earn Rate:
- 5X on travel when purchased through the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal*
- 5X on rotating quarterly bonus categories (max of $1,500 per quarter in spend; activation required – same as existing Freedom card)
- 5X on Lyft rides through March 2025
- 3X on dining (including takeout and delivery)
- 3X at drugstores
- 1X on everything else
(* Keep in mind, booking via the portal for hotels means that you won’t, in most cases, earn any hotel points / stay credits nor have any hotel elite status honored. For airlines, the fares are generally the same or similar, however, it does mean that you have to deal with Chase for changes instead of the airline directly – and that can be a big hassle.)
Instacart Benefits
- 3 free months of Instacart Express
- $10/quarter in statement credits
Note: Our rewards optimization calculator will count all travel on this card at 5X, but please note the limitations around that above.

This no-fee card offers 1.25x on all purchases.
Compare this card with the standard Venture which earns 2x miles on all purchases. Spend your miles on travel at a penny per mile or transfer them to more than a dozen airlines.
Most people would fare better with the standard Capital One Venture card, despite its annual fee, because it earns at the rate of 2x per dollar instead of 1.25x.
The bonus value for the early spend bonus on this card assumes you will transfer the points to miles. If you use to book travel, the early spend bonus value will be $200, exactly.
You can transfer to more than 15 airline and hotel partners. See the full list of Capital One Miles transfer partners and transfer times.
Enjoy 0% intro APR on purchases and balance transfers for 15 months; 19.74% - 29.74% variable APR after that; 3% fee on the amounts transferred within the first 15 months

With 4% cash back on dining, including takeout and delivery, 2% back on groceries, streaming, and gas, and no annual fee, our review is that the Altitude GO is a surprisingly strong card.

- 2% cash back on grocery stores and grocery delivery, streaming services and purchases at gas stations

- No annual fee
- No foreign transaction fees

US Bank Altitude GO Credit Card Review
The bottom line is that 4% cash back on dining, including takeout, dine-in, and delivery, is extremely strong for a credit card without an annual fee. It compares to the Capital One Savor card, though that card carries an annual fee.
Beyond the 4% cash back on dining, the 2% and 1% categories aren't special, especially considering the Citi Double Cash earns 2% back on everything, all of the time. But we can't think of another card earning 4% back on dining without an annual fee.
This card is for people with a very strong credit profile. You should have a 720 or better FICO to apply for this card.
