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

Where it beats a flat 2% card

Nowhere on published rates alone. Its case rests on credits, offers or the program its points feed, not on the earn rate.

Delivery apps and the dining rate

Where these numbers come from: RightCard's data pipeline re-checks each card's published rates weekly and lists a rate only after two independent sources agree. 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.
