The Offer
No direct link, sent out via snail mail
- Capital One has sent out a targeted offer for 60,000 points after $3,000 in spend within the first three months from card opening on the Capital One Venture card.
Card Details
- $95 annual fee; fee is waived the first year
- Card earns 2x points everywhere (the equivalent of 2% everywhere)
- No foreign transaction fees
- Visa Signature benefits
Our Verdict
The standard bonus on this card is 40,000 miles. There is currently a public offer of 50,000 miles. Points are worth 1¢ each when redeeming to offset travel costs or in gift card redemption (e.g. Amazon). The downside to this bonus is the card is issued by Capital One and they do a hard pull on all three credit bureaus. Keep in mind, you can freeze your Experian or Transunion and limit the pulls to just two, plus a lot of us don’t care about hard pulls much anymore.
