What is the best points credit card for collecting air miles and free flights?
The Chase Sapphire card gives you 10,000 free points after your first purchase, so that’s worth mentioning. In general, it’s a 1% reward card though. The Escape by Discover Card pays you 2 points for every dollar you spend, plus, for the first 25 months, you’ll earn 1,000 bonus points per month (25,000 bonus points total). So it’s at least a 2% rewards card. The TrueEarnings Card from Costco and American Express is a 2% reward card on travel and 3% at restaurants. You can use the rewards calculator at http://www.creditcardtuneup.com/ to compare what you’d earn from those cards and others for your entered spending profile.
