Card Details
Our Verdict
This card is issued by Comenity Bank and normally gives you Platinum status after $5,000 in spend (first year you get it after first purchase), so this is an upgrade to Diamond. Pretty good offer if you value Diamond status with TR, the earning rates on this card aren’t great though (points are worth 1¢ each):
- 5x credits per $1 spent at Total Rewards resorts and casinos and on sport, concert, and show tickets through TR Live Events
- 2x credits per $1 spent on airlines, gas and groceries
- 1x credits per $1 spent everywhere else
By doing the $5,000 spend in the 1x category you’d be forgoing at least 1% in cash back or $50, not terrible for Diamond status. If you got this offer, let me know if you’re planning on meeting the minimum spend requirement.
