I guess the only downside about this card is it requires $50 to redeem
It's very easy to withdraw, simple ACH process. Yes, $50 is not so nice, but I can live with that. I have the same thing with my BCE, I have $24.49 in rewards, which I can't redeem until I have $25, and I no longer use the card. (So today I made a purchase just for that)
Does the Fidelity one require exact $50 to redeem? or any amont above 50, like 51.56?
I don't really like my BCE because I can only redeem exact amont like 25/50/75, and its 1-month delay!

The plan was wait till july or aug and try and go for sallie mae and fidelity amex , then i would be done apping for an long long time
I am in the same boat as you. Sallie Mae and Fidelity Amex are the last two I intend to app for but I want to wait until the end of Jan for HPs to be a year old. Not easy waiting.
These two are killers for me. But I have to wait too

I have it set up to automatically redeem into our fidelity each time it reaches $50 and it will swipe every penny available each time it does it if it's over the $50. so unlike the amex as you talk about you get it all once over the $50 not in increments which is fantastic. and since it is double you are talking about just $2500 in spending.
Was overcome by the pressure and applied 2 days ago. Approved for $15k.

Congrats this card and Sallie Mae are on my list for September app spree. Trying to resist temptation of apping before then. If you don't mind me asking what was your experian fico and utilization when you apped?

I figured. I don't need any EX pulls even though I have 2 just now falling off any day now. I've bookmarked it.. gonna get this when I decide that I don't want to use the Arrival anymore.
