Every category, as published

The everyday rates only. No welcome bonus, no limited-time offers. Where a rotating 5% quarter is live today it is noted in the row.

Category	Earn	≈ value / $1
Restaurants	2x points	2¢ cash · 2.8¢ travel
Supermarkets	1x points	1¢ cash · 1.4¢ travel
Gas stations	1x points	1¢ cash · 1.4¢ travel
Travel	3x points	3¢ cash · 4.2¢ travel
Online shopping	1x points	1¢ cash · 1.4¢ travel
Drugstores	1x points	1¢ cash · 1.4¢ travel
Transit & rideshare	1x points	1¢ cash · 1.4¢ travel
Streaming	1x points	1¢ cash · 1.4¢ travel
Everything else	1x points	1¢ cash · 1.4¢ travel

Travel value uses 1.4¢ per point for American AAdvantage, a conservative figure. Cash redemptions on most points programs pay 1¢ or less.

Where it beats a flat 2% card

Restaurants, Travel. Everywhere else a plain 2% card earns more, so this card is a category card, not an everything card.

Merchant codes come from our merchant directory. If a card or store is missing here, it is because we could not verify it, not because we guessed.
