Good to know, I would hate to lose my QS VS. Is it just me, or does MC have a higher percentage of the market than V? Out of all of my CCs, only US Bank Cash+ and C1 QS are Vs.
Not sure about percentages, but I can say that BofA has a nice VS card good for travel and AAA. It's less attractive if you don't have AAA, but still not a half-bad VS card.

I don't see any option for getting a Quicksilver World Elite Mastercard. Visa (Signature) only is listed. That's the same as when I obtained my QS VS a few years back. Where are folks seeing the World Elite Mastercard version?
"Quicksilver® also comes with Visa Signature® Benefits" (if your credit line is at least $5000).

Thanks for that HeavenOhio. That's as I remembered it. I guess I just somehow lucked into having more MCs that Vs.

In my wallet, lol!
No, seriously, you used to be able to get QS in VS or WEMC, depending on whether the app was done via Cap1 or Credit Karma. Then, late last year, they started only offering the WEMC, which is when I got mine. And now it appears they've changed it again!
I can't keep up! 😀
It says the same thing for the Quicksilver Visa Signature. Most people get more than that. I do not like the way that it is worded.
