Sebby’s Take: One of the best starting points into the travel rewards world. You have flexible points, strong multipliers, a reasonable annual fee, and tons of optionality (whether team cash back or travel).

Sebby's take: Ideal for people with high spend at office supply stores or on internet, cable and phone services. Given the flexibility of Ultimate Reward (UR) points, this is one of the best earners cards.

Sebby's take: Despite a hefty annual fee, you get up to $1,574 in credits that help offset this. The card is great for people who benefit from lounge access, travel protections, and access to programs like Fine Hotels & Resorts.

Sebby's take: Flagship travel card and offers lounge access through Priority Pass and Capital One lounges. You earn competitive multipliers on hotels, rental cars, and flights booked through Capital One Travel and 2x on everything else. The annual fee is offset through a $300 travel credit and 10,000 anniversary miles.
