RateBuddy Verdict

The Good
  • Includes a highly flexible $200 annual travel credit that effectively reduces the out-of-pocket cost of the annual fee.
  • Offers 6 complimentary airport lounge visits per year globally through the Visa Airport Companion Program.
  • Features an outstanding 2x points earn rate across a massive range of daily categories (dining, groceries, gas, transit, entertainment).
  • Comes with 2 NEXUS application fee rebates every four years, which is perfect for couples traveling together.
The Trade-offs
  • Carries a very high annual fee of $499 that is not waived in the first year.
  • Requires a very strict minimum personal income of $150,000 or household income of $200,000 to qualify.
