Read the assumptions
A benchmark is a starting point, not money in your pocket.
- Implied values come from issuer estimates or a cited comparable benchmark. They may assume specific usage, eligibility, spending, or a maximum annual credit. Each row explains the basis and links to its source.
- Use the personal-value column for what you would otherwise pay or realistically redeem, not the retail headline price of a perk you may not use.
- Check current card fees, benefit terms, promotion eligibility and redemption rules with the issuer before applying. Promotions and product terms change.
- This estimate excludes spend required to earn benefits, financing interest, foreign-currency charges, and the value of your time. It is general information, not personal financial advice.
