- There is an annual spend limit of $10,000 in your combined 3% and 2% Spend Categories beginning the first Statement Period following your Anniversary Date.
Summary
This card seems nice for a lazy newbie. However, in most of the categories there are better cards earning more than 3%. For people who plan to spend a lot of money on some specific categories, the upper limit of $10,000 per year seems low. Considering this card does not have any sign up bonus, please think again whether you want to apply for it.
