It is VERY unlikely that you will ever be offered any cards which do not pay a big fee to Bankrate. Ever seen the IHG credit card reviewed on a blog? Thought not.
I also suggest it is unlikely that, given a high non-affiliate bonus and a lower affiliate bonus on a card, you would be offered the link for the higher bonus.
That would not be an issue, Raffles, since I can't imagine ordering cards from them. My main interest would be to track promos, spending, expirations, get quick info on best card to use in a particular situation, and perhaps learn about new deals. It would be an additional source, not a sole source. This is my primary source, and I really like it, though I find it very hard, and sometimes nearly impossible, to navigate at times (eg hundreds of pages of responses to posts). That said, no, I don't think I have seen IHG reviewed in a blog. Interesting.
