Notes

Not Financial Advice
This website is not financial advice and may not have up-to-date information. Please do your own reserach.
Bonus Cash Value
"Bonus Cash Value" calculates non point bonuses like rebates, cashback, credits, and other cash equivelants that do not come to you as points.
Cash Value per M.S.R.
"Cash Value per Minimum Spend Requirement" shows the most amount of value you get per dollar spend (the higher the better)
Assumptions
This chart assumes you want to spend the least amount of money to earn the most amount of points. It ignores the value of lounge visits, exclusive offers, companion passes, etc.
First Year Free
* means first year free. After your first year there is likely an annual fee. In almost all cases you can cancel the card before the second year annual fee.
