Caps, exclusions, merchant coding, and redemption values can change the real return. Verify issuer terms before applying.

APR reality check

If you carry a balance, compare payoff cost before rewards. Interest can erase rewards quickly.

Main catch

The $795 annual fee needs to be offset by rewards, credits, or travel value.
