I'm figuring on paying my homeowners ins with the new card so other than AMEX (which my ins co doesn't accept) are there better travel points cards out there? I figure the airline specific cards are too restricting as I don't know where I'll go and who serves which areas.
Yup. That's why I never book with c1 except $300 credit that they give
I book all my hotels through C1 portal. Get 10x points and also easy to get $300 credit. Hotel prices are easy to price match as they are almost always stable or better in other deal sites. The match to any website. I have matched the prices to Agoda, trivago etc
I've only used c1 credit card portal for hotels in Asia. Perhaps the prices are better in the states. I've only tried to pricematch a flight and they were sticklers about it,even though I had a screenshot. They had to be able to see the lower flight price themselves.
Same with Airfare. I was able to get better price in other travel portals (factoring extra 3% miles)

Somewhat depends on where you spend the most. When I was doing construction I used my Chase INK cards a lot that gave me 3% back on home improvement/building supply type stores. My current Citi Premium card gives me 3% on restaurants, gas and groceries (I think).
Chase does something occasionally called "pay yourself back" which means that I can use points to pay for something I've already paid for and get the original amount back while getting a premium on the points value. Not sure that's clear but as an example, I paid $1335.71 for an Airbnb last fall and was able to use 106,856 points to have the original amount returned to me. That's something like a 25% premium on the points. They might only do that because I have 2 or 3 thousand dollars worth of points racked up but I'm not sure. Sometimes it's only a straight across trade offer which I ignore...
Citi double cash is a pure cash back. You get 1% when you spend and 1% when you pay them. So if you pay your CC bill in full every month, you get 2% cash back on all purchases.
BOA premier Cash back card can give u 2.62% cash back on all purchases as long as you are Premier Customer( 100K parked in in BOA in any way- Brokergae account qualify too)
Best at what?
If you want to maximize rewards you'll need to use multiple cards (at least 3-5 of them)-- doing that you can get 3-6x points per dollar of spend in all your common spend categories... and then 2-2.6x points in non-category spending.
At that point how much the rewards are worth depend on if you travel or just want cash.
For cash just swap out X points 1:1: for "cents" and you're done.
For travel you can pretty easily get 1.5 to 2.5 cents PER point (so 3x would mean 4.5-7.5 cents per dollar of spend in travel reward value) toward things like coach flights and hotels bookings...and 4-8 cents PER point (so 3x would mean 12-24 cents per dollar of spend in travel reward value) toward things like business and first class flights.
Same with Airfare. I was able to get better price in other travel portals (factoring extra 3% miles)
I agree. Better prices for hotel and flights can be had using apps or simply logging into the third party's website. Capital one price matches only to booking searches that are incognito. I'll still keep my venture x card though. I was still able to recieve my $300 travel credit from a hotel booking that I canceled a month later. The same thing happened with my chase sapphire preffered card. Booked a hotel room and canceled 2 months later. The$50 credit wasn't returned.
