Rewards Credit Cards - Reviews
Credit card rewards come in many forms — from miles to cash back to points — that can redeemed for a variety of goodies. Some cards offer large sign-up bonuses, others offer extra earnings on bonus categories. Some cards charge annual fees. All these differences can make it difficult to compare.
We’ve created a rating system to cut through the complicated details and compare cards on a similar basis. Our ratings take into account the estimated value of their rewards, the ease of redeeming rewards and special perks and benefits. Check out the offers below from our partners.
Wyndham Rewards Earner® Card
Last reviewed: March 6, 2025
This card can offer great value for occasional travelers who prefer to stay at Wyndham hotels, especially via its high rewards rate on gas and generous anniversary bonus (a perk that’s hard to come by on a no-annual- fee hotel card).

Southwest Rapid Rewards® Premier Credit Card
Last reviewed: August 21, 2025
If you frequently fly Southwest, it’s worth upgrading to this high-value airline card, despite its $99 annual fee. It offers a generous sign-up bonus and its rewards points are worth substantially more than the average credit card rewards point.

Club Carlson Premier Rewards Visa Signature card
Last reviewed: September 10, 2020
One of our favorite travel cards, this premium hotel card was tailor made for fans of luxury hotel stays: for just $75 a year, it offers some of the generous rewards available on hotel stays and regular purchases as well as some the industry’s best bonuses. This offer is no longer available.
Citi Double Cash® Card
Last reviewed: October 14, 2025
If you regularly pay off your card in full each month, it’s hard to beat the cash back rewards on the Citi Double Cash card: It offers 2% cash back (1% when you buy and an additional 1% as you make payments for those purchases), making it an ideal card for purchases that don’t qualify for larger bonuses.

Instacart Mastercard®
Last reviewed: October 31, 2025
If you’re already an avid Instacart user, this card could be hugely rewarding thanks to its impressive rewards rate, broad category coverage and generous first-year bonus. If you only use the service occasionally, though, you may be better off with a general grocery rewards card.
