Minimum Credit Card Rewards Value

Note: I am NOT compensated for this post. I would like to be, but that's another discussion.

Do you receive more than 2% in award credit on your daily credit card spend?  If not, switch cards to the Fidelity Amex that gives 2% cash back on every purchase.  If your current credit card yields just 1 point per dollar, you would probably be better off with a 2% cash back card for daily spending. It may be advantageous to keep an airline card for free checked bags, double miles promotions, or to avoid foreign transaction fees, but only use it sparingly.  The Fidelity card is an Amex, so a Visa/Mastercard backup is good to carry.

Cash Back Works On Any Airline With No Black Out Dates
