Credits & perks

Annual fee$95
vs
Stated credits a year$125face value, as Bank of America states it
Face value isn’t real value. A $25-a-month credit for something you’d never buy is worth $0 to you, and most credits are use-it-or-lose-it by month, quarter or half-year. Tick only what you’d spend on anyway.

Which would you actually use?

Our assumption: the boxes ticked to start are the “easy” credits: broad, flexible or automatic (general travel credits, airline-fee credits on any airline, Global Entry/TSA, anniversary free nights). Niche or single-merchant credits start unticked. Your choices are saved in this browser and also used by the calculator.

Counts each ticked credit at 100% of face value. Global Entry/TSA counts as a quarter a year. Free nights use our point values. *At our sample profile; how credits are counted.
