New Visa Signature Card = 50 Percent Rewards

NonSufficientFunds — Sun, 09 Jun 2013 22:16:22 GMT

An innovator in next-generation, interactive electronic payment cards, today doubles the value of most existing Experience rewards on its award-winning ePlate credit card and introduces 12 new Experience rewards. This new level of Experience rewards lets cardholders earn unique experiences, such as private jet flights and racecar driving lessons, at reward levels that can be valued as high as 50 percent or more.
This rate is 50 times greater than the traditional 1 percent rewards of other credit cards.

Well, if the Orange card doesn't appeal to you, it looks like they also have a Blue card.

Well I was thinking about it, but the 50% reward is very selective so it might not be worthwhile, this sounds a lot like a sign up bonus represented in a different way. With that being said, I think Amex has probably the best kind of rewards that are on going.

Like Small Business Saturday 100% cash back upto $25 spent at a small business, and things like $40 cash back on $100+ spending currently at NY and Co. I recieved $100 in restaurant gift certificates from small business Saturday last year alone.

Interesting gimmick. Unless you were planning to pay cash for the rewards they're offering, this card is borderline useless. It would be like someone offering me a free PB&J sandwich "valued" at $1,000 after spending $2,000. That's a 50% "cash back equivalent!"
