This is a really good duo with the citi double cash card. Those both would cover all/most bases with no annual fees. Very nice imo 👍

I just really hate the citi app... Literally looks like spam pop ups with the un-deleteable promos

Oh, this is nice. I'm going to use this instead of my Capital One Savor card for restaurants. The Savor gives 3% cashback, but this one will give me 5%. I don't typically spend more than $500 a month on restaurants, anyway.

Nice, I can use it to replace my Amex card on the grocery side. 3% -> 5% bump. Thank you OP!

Same response above.

People see the percentage and salivate. You have to understand your actual spending to realize if this is worth it to you or not. 2% of $100 is piddly squat.

I'm probably going to make this my dedicated restaurant card after I bank that $200 sign up bonus. Maybe occasionally I'll switch it to home improvement or travel or something. Not sure what's up with all the haters. This card seems pretty decent for a no annual fee card. I also like a free $200.

Can buy 1 $500 visa GC each month.

Yeah, you can if you buy it from a grocery store or a home improvement store if they have them because I don't see where else you can buy a Visa GC from amongst the stores in the spending categories that this card has.

Thanks It's great deal fro me. Was planning to upgrade to Amex preferred blue before for 6% cash with $95 annual fees. Instead now I applied for this and got it approved . For the first 500 in grocery would use this. Anything above would use Amex blue card 3% cash back. For all online will use BOA 3% cash Reward card. Rest all purchase would use capital one silver card or Amex magnet card 1.5% on any purchase !!

Does anyone know if this card will have the 2 year extended warranty benefit? That's the only reason I keep around my Rewards+ right now. Would love to PC to this card if it has that benefit.

Can you get the 5% in an "Other" type category? What if most your spent is on something random, that doesn't fall into the buckets they list? Like paying the water bill, etc.?

Quote from SiennaDeer8270 :
If you spent more than $500 its actually a better deal since you'd get the full benefit of the increased cash back. If you only spend say $200 per month, you are really applying this to get $500 x 2% = $10 per month. Is it really worth a hit to your credit for $10 per month? I value my credit hits at much higher levels than that.
The sign up bonus is nice and a hard pull really won't hurt much if your credit already high.

Not bad. Rotate with Discover, Chase Freedom, and US Bank Cash+ to expand 5% categories. Bank of America, your move. Not you, Wells Fargo.

You only have to worry about credit hits from applying for CCs if you are applying for a bunch of them around the same time or are about to get a mortgage/car loan and want to keep it as clean as possible for that. Otherwise there is no reason to worry about a single hard pull for a new CC.
