My apologies if this is the wrong forum to ask this - it is a bit of a strange question.

So long story short, I was a Airpoints Gold Member for quite a while. I started to become quite sick with the dreaded C in 2019. I started to slow down, which in turn meant I wasn't flying as much. I brought a Koru Membership to tide me over whilst I wasn't flying as much. In 2020 I unfortunately had to come to a full stop. I let the Koru expire in Jan 2021 as there was no way I was going anywhere, anytime soon. I put my Business on pause and just focused on what I needed to do to get better.

Happily since the start of the year I have started to resume what I was doing, and my Travel has started up again, albeit slowly, building things up again. I went to go and renew my Koru Membership. The biggest benefit to me is the extra Carry On (or checked in bag if I had booked a Seat+Bag). The amount of medical gear I have to carry around with me know is insane!

Unfortunately it seems that because of the rather long interval between it lapsing, and me renewing, I will have to pay the $250 Joining Fee again.

So I have been looking at Airpoints Credit Cards, and I see that they actually waive the Joining Fee. Excellent! $700 is a lot more tolerable than $950!

My personal and business bank do not offer Airpoints CCs. So I have been looking and trying to compare the different cards that are on offer from the likes of AMEX, Westpac, Kiwibank ect. A lot of the Fees, Benefits seem somewhat similar. My question to you awesome FTers is: is there any particular Card that is better than the others? Any Airpoints CCs that I might have missed? Or are they all pretty much the same and just pick one? I would probably swap all my accounts over and use the CC as my normal Business Card.

Thanks for reading this rather long post. Again apologies if I have posted it in the wrong place. Appreciate any opinions

Cheers
