Score Card
I have used a VISA for 15 years that has "score card" points credited to my account, 1 point for every dollar. I have only ever cashed in airline tickets for trips to Europe. It generally takes 65,000 points ($65,000) to get one airline ticket....generally in the 800-900 dollar range. Is this the best bang for my buck, or should I consider changing cards to get better rewards, faster? I want to continue to use points towards travel. Since we use this card for about 98% of our credit card purchases, we get about 1 free trip a year, or 2 free trips every other year. Thanks. dan

There are many other cards that would give you better rewards than what you currently have. There are airline specific cards (United, AA), hotel cards (SPG, Marriott), general travel cards (Sapphire Preferred, Citi TY), etc. all of which would give you a better redemption rate. Read through different threads on here to see which product will work best for you.
