Rewards Points Calculator

[Anonymous]

Hello Community,

I have been searching the internet for a website that has a rewards point calculator, ie I spend "X" dollars on gas, dining, travel and generic so I get "X" points for this. Specifically I am trying to calculate how many points I would accrue with the Chase Sapphire Preferred card, although I may be considering other cards. If anyone has come across this let me know. I am trying to avoid doing the calculations myself...

You can enter the amount of spending in a lot of different categories and the program will rank cards based on highest rewards for your spending habits. Keep in mind it is calculating spending as if that were your only card so if you have a collection of cards each with a different purpose the numbers may not be accurate. For example if all you had was a Citi Forward everything outside the bonus categories would get 1 point back but if you also had Blue Cash you would get way more than 1% for groceries.

Thank you, not a bad website. I thought the estimated values were a bit inflated... did some quick calculations and they seam to be close to legit. Not a bad tool, should be helpful for many.

No prob, nerdwallet has a simpler version which may be more accurate.
