Credit Card Review

 by Card Expert Curtis Arnold
This is a very popular cash back card and for good reason. First, there is no limit to reward points. Additionally, cardholders earn 3% for annual gasoline purchases of up to $3,000 (1% thereafter), 2% for restaurants, 2% for travel, 1% everywhere else, including Costco. This card offers car rental loss and damage at no extra cost. Purchases with this card can also double the length of extended warranties. Cardholders pay no annual fee with a paid Costco membership. The card serves as both your American Express credit card as well as Costco membership card.
