I don't travel much but could start saving points for after school. Do already have a discover it but it's rotating categories where as I could get a straight 2 and 3% on the Blue card.
Thoughts?
for points the EDP or ED is nice place to start, since you can some bonus spending on there with groceries and gas. PRG is another option to get started with some MR points. BTW from what i can tell ED > Blue in almost every way, unless i am missing something?

MR as a cash back option is terrible ... the only point system that works as good Cash back is UR points. Blue Cash Everyday card is the best option if you want no AF and a Cash back card.

But like I said, the Everyday can get me started on points. Thought 10,000 bonus isn't that much and I won't be spending so much money that it'll really add the points. I think BCE is the pick
Personally the only reason why i chose the ED is because it has no AF and the first non AF that can accrue MR points so in the future if I ever value MR points more I have already attained MR points for transfer

I thought he said he wanted points to accrue for travel i guess i misunderstood.
App for the old Blue cash card? A link is floating around somewhere for it

you can just google it i think it goes straight to the app. The funny thing about that is if i were logged into my amex account I couldn't find it , but if you are incognito mode the link shows up and you can app for it i found that quite odd. Blue cash you need to put an fair amount of spending throught it before the 5% categories kick in. 6500 i believe , but good thing is there are no caps
