Rewards Credit Cards - Reviews
Credit card rewards come in many forms — from miles to cash back to points — that can redeemed for a variety of goodies. Some cards offer large sign-up bonuses, others offer extra earnings on bonus categories. Some cards charge annual fees. All these differences can make it difficult to compare.
We’ve created a rating system to cut through the complicated details and compare cards on a similar basis. Our ratings take into account the estimated value of their rewards, the ease of redeeming rewards and special perks and benefits. Check out the offers below from our partners.

Regions Visa Signature Premium credit card
Last reviewed: September 10, 2020
The Regions Visa Signature Premium card offers a unique rewards scheme for Regions Bank customers, but its limited perks and mediocre points value make its high annual fee hard to justify.
Venmo Credit Card
Last reviewed: October 1, 2024
The Venmo Credit Card should offer refreshing flexibility thanks to its unique cash back program that lets you earn rewards in your biggest spending categories. However, there’s no guarantee your spending habits will line up with the card’s eligible categories.
Meijer Platinum MasterCard
Last reviewed: April 30, 2020
The Meijer Platinum MasterCard offers considerable savings on supermarket and gas purchases, but anyone who lives outside of the chain’s six-state territory is better served with a general rewards or cash back card.
Nordstrom Visa Signature card
Last reviewed: November 19, 2021
Devoted Nordstrom fans will relish the opportunity to potentially save big bucks with the Nordstrom Visa Signature card, but occasional visitors to the luxury department store should take note of the card’s low overall rewards and mediocre sign-up bonus before applying.

State Farm Rewards Visa
Last reviewed: May 8, 2020
The State Farm Rewards Visa encourages responsibility by making it easy for cardholders to put their rewards toward a mortgage or insurance payment, but its lackluster rewards scheme falls short of its competitors.
Target REDcard™
Last reviewed: September 2, 2021
The Target Redcard is a no-brainer for loyal customers of the discount retailer, but its typically high APR means cardholders who don’t pay their monthly balance in full might end up negating the store card’s savings and other benefits. This offer is no longer available on our site.

DCU Visa Platinum Rewards credit card
Last reviewed: January 15, 2021
This plain vanilla rewards card offers a low APR and standard benefits, such as travel insurance and extended warranty; but its bare bones rewards program won’t get you very far if you’re looking to quickly earn premier rewards.
Starbucks Rewards Visa card
Last reviewed: March 1, 2024
You would have to drink a spectacular number of Frappuccinos to justify the $49 annual fee that kicks in on the Starbucks Rewards Visa card after your first year.
PayPal Extras Mastercard
Last reviewed: October 1, 2024
The PayPal Extras Mastercard is burdened by cumbersome redemption tiers, poor redemption value and restrictions galore, making it a hard sell even for frequent PayPal users.
Victoria's Secret Angel credit card
Last reviewed: October 8, 2020
The Victoria’s Secret Angel credit card is must-have plastic for die-hard fans of the lingerie retailer, but those who rarely patronize the pink-hued stores should steer clear.
