Great Source

Hello Everyone, 

 

I came across this great website the other day and thought I would share it with you. If you are thinking about applying for a new card soon it is very beneficial. 

 

http://www.valuepenguin.com/best-credit-cards#167

 

You are able to input how much you spend per month and where that spending is going towards (e.g. groceries, gas, entertainment). It then gives you the best card based on that information. There are other cool features too. Not sure how dated the value for points are but still worth the while.

Yeah SPG looks good. You can add other cards to that chart by selecting the cards below the chart. You just have to highlight it in case you missed it.

yeah i entered in my monthly spend also , I only listed the top 2 lol. Barclay arrival + looks interesting but just not sure i do enough travel to warrant two different travel cards.

Re: Great Source

the only thing that i noticed that site doesn't account is shopping portals, i don't know if there would be an way to count those in their little formula, because its never constant.

Re: Great Source

SPis coming out over 2% with me only listing $1k general, $500 grocery, and $500 dining monthly... More than 2% cash back spark?!

is this a secret winner card? But what if you don't stay in those hotels, then not really right?
