Great for those who need a card for daily use
All things considered, this credit card is great for those looking to buy everyday items while earning travel rewards. So, when you swipe your card for your weekly or monthly groceries, you’re also saving up for that romantic getaway or family trip.

Look beyond sign up bonuses
This card is a great option for those who reach for their plastic daily on everyday purchases like gas and groceries. Its earning structure is similar to a cash back card in that rewards are earned on every transaction, and not limited to specific retailers or eligible purchase types.
