Suggested addition to "Rewards Comparison Tools" section is evreward.com. I use this tool all of the time for online shopping...they link to airline, hotel, and other cash-back programs.

Be aware that they list fewer mileage earning malls than rewardsdb (they don't for instance list earnings for Delta Skymiles via the Delta mall run by Points.com, nor programs like British Airways, Spirit, or Lufthansa to name a few), they also list fewer cashback and points programs.

Agreed...just another log for the fire.

Unfortunately everything is 1 mile per $1 spent so for most merchants the rate is noticeably worse than other rewards programs. Still - it's another option. (I have added to the RewardsDB tables for easy comparison)
