Thanks for your review!

Absolutely love this card. For a nominal annual fee you get double points on every purchase and a redemption value of 100 basis points (1%) on all travel-related purchases. So if you typically spend $3,000 a month on your credit card, a Venture card would give you 6,000 points in a month and 72,000 points in a year. That has a redemption value of $720 which, depending on where you travel, is probably enough to cover at least one round-trip flight anywhere in the US. And the redemption process is super easy, you just erase purchases on the Capital One website.

The Capital One Venture card has a great rewards program. The bonus miles promotion is easily attainable and quickly adds to your travel miles rewards. From there, rewards on all purchases add up quickly. The only downside to this card is the APR. But, if you pay off your purchases in a timely manner, this should not be an issue. Overall, the best credit card I have owned.

Once of my favorite cards. Got this 3 years after my bankruptcy and in 6 months, got a limit increase. The purchase eraser is amazing and has saved us a bunch of money on vacations and travel purchases. The online system is easy to use, but the mobile app is so-so in features, but gets the job done.

good to have this card, only negative is that there is an annual fee but there are so many travel and cashback rewards it cancels out the annual fee.
By: Liz | Mar 9, 2016
Overall great card, covers all the basics - travel rewards, cashback rewards, low APR, no annual fee the first year.. easy to use and gives you rewards for basically every purchase
By: Janine | Mar 9, 2016
I travel a lot and this card is amazing, it has regular everyday cashback rewards also. Capital One in general is really user friendly. Definitely recommend!!
By: Claire | Mar 1, 2016
This card is wonderful. I use it for bigger purchases all the way down to my Netflix subscription and everyday items. I got this card before a trip to Europe (it doesn't have foreign transaction fees) and have been using it ever since!
