Calculating best value... |
Every card ranked by what it's actually worth — in dollars.
We translate every reward — points, miles, cashback — into real dollar value so you can compare apples to apples.
Enter how much you typically spend per month in each category. We'll re-rank all cards for you.
Some cards (BofA Preferred Rewards, US Bank Smartly) boost your rewards based on how much you keep at the bank. We'll factor in both the boost AND the opportunity cost of holding that money there.
Best card combo for your spending — each transaction goes to whichever card earns the most.
Every point is worth exactly 1¢. This is what you get if you redeem points as a statement credit, direct deposit, or gift card. Simple and guaranteed.
Points can be transferred to airline and hotel partners (like Hyatt, United, Delta) where they're often worth more. Transfer valuations are based on industry-standard estimates:
| Chase Ultimate Rewards | 1.5¢/pt |
| Amex Membership Rewards | 1.5¢/pt |
| Citi ThankYou Points | 1.5¢/pt |
| Bilt Points | 1.5¢/pt |
| Capital One Miles | 1¢/mi |
| All other currencies | 1¢/pt |
Transfer values are estimates. Actual value depends on how and when you redeem.
