My Take

Great way to start earning Membership Rewards points. That's because while it has a lower bonus — if you get the Gold or Platinum cards FIRST, those will make you ineligible for the offer on this card.

This card does add to your 5/24 count so not the best for newbies. You'll also have to use some of the perks to make up the annual fee.

The standard offer on this card is around 40,000-45,000 bonus points. In summer 2023, there was a 60,000 point bonus.
