Points are converted to cash at a conservative per-program rate. Most programs publish no guaranteed cash value, so those rates are estimates of typical redemption value, not guarantees. Actual value depends on how you redeem. See how we value points →
Rates with strings attached
These apply only at a specific brand, or need something beyond how you spend, like a balance held with the issuer or a status tier. They are real, but we do not count them in the value above, which uses the rates any cardholder earns on ordinary spending.

Signup Bonus
AS HIGH AS 90,000 Bonus Miles after you spend $3,000 in purchases on your new Card within the first 6 months of Card Membership.
Value: $900 · Spend $3,000 in 6 months
This bonus is counted in full in the card's Year 1 value, and only when your spend meets the requirement. It's excluded from the ongoing value.
Who This Card Makes Sense For
- People who reliably pay their balance in full each month. The 28.49% APR would wipe out the card's other benefits within a single billing cycle of revolving.
- People who will spend $500 a month for the next 6 months anyway. That clears the $3,000 required for the $900 bonus, which covers the $350 fee and then some in year one.
- People whose flights are mostly with American Express National Bank. The 3x is where this card beats a general-purpose one, and it only applies to that spending.
