Re: Extremely arbitrary...

I like nice looking designs like the Chase Amazon but it's not a biggie. I'm more neurotic about needing to see whole numbers.

Do you like the look of this card?

Plenty are concerned about how their cards look.  For me it's all about the rewards.

Re: Extremely arbitrary...

Nah, I don't really care that much about how the cards look as long as they work properly though my AARP, Ritz and CSP are all really nice looking.

Re: Extremely arbitrary...

A design won't stop me from wanting (well, perhaps an exception for Priceline) a card.  Nor will it make me get a card I don't need, but I do appreciate nice appearances.  My only two cards up until recently were a CapOne Plat and the Barclays Mastercard, both reek of cheap. Smiley Happy    Glad I've moved up a little bit in the world!

Really want the CSP preferred.  Looks great, although I'm more into the rewards aspect of it.   I'll dream about a Ritz Carlton, but I'd never get one because it's just not for me or something I could utilize correctly.  The YouTube video of someone demonstrating what it's like to drop it is quite funny.

 

Yes, total first world problems here. (And shallow! Smiley Very Happy )

Re: Extremely arbitrary...

The two flat 2% Cashback cards on the market now - Fidelity Amex and Citi DC - are both ugly and feel cheap to me. But everyone should have one of those nonetheless
