Katie's Take

Why this card might (or might not) be right for you.

Show Hide

This card often has a very comparable welcome offer to the higher annual fee Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card — but with a lower annual fee. The miles you earn are worth a minimum of 1 cent per mile so 75,000 miles at minimum can be redeemed to offset $750 of any travel expense. You also have the option to transfer miles to airline partners or hotel partners just like you can with the Venture X. This card also includes a credit for TSA Precheck or Global Entry!

Keep in mind that the terms state that you are only eligible to earn a bonus on this card if you haven't earned a bonus on this same card — or the Venture X — in the past 48 months. If you have received a welcome offer on the Venture X in the past 48 months, you should not apply for this card.
