Rewards Calculator Algorithm
You can either estimate rewards by inputting your spending habits manually or creating secure bank connections through our trusted financial partner mx.com and letting Finly analyze your spending in the past year.
Finly factors in all the reward limits and fine prints of every single credit card so you can be sure your results are as accurate as possible.
Note: The bank connections are not perfect, meaning that occasionally the connection may fail. This happens when the MX bank connector is unable to establish the link, which is beyond our control. If this occurs, please feel free to inform us and use the manual method as an alternative.

Pros & Cons
Pros
- 1.5% Cash Back: You earn 1.5% cash back on online purchases, gas, and groceries (up to $25,000 annual spend), which makes this card a strong option for everyday essentials.
- On-Demand Redemption: You can redeem your cash back anytime after earning $25, offering more flexibility than other cards that require waiting until the end of the year.
- Low Annual Fee: At only $30 annually, the fee is easily offset if you maximize the card's cash back potential.
Cons
- Limited Insurance: The card comes with basic insurance coverage, like extended warranty and purchase protection, but doesn’t offer extensive travel or other premium benefits.
- Lower Cash Back for Other Purchases: Purchases outside the bonus categories earn just 1% cash back, which is fairly standard but not competitive for high spenders.
