Capital One® VentureOne® Rewards Credit Card

The Capital One VentureOne Rewards Credit Card provides an excellent reward of 10X miles per dollar at Hotels.com/venture through January 2020, with 1.25X miles for every other purchase.

Capital One designed this card for people with excellent credit, but if your scores fall in the “good” range you probably have a decent chance of being approved, depending on other factors that affect your creditworthiness.

Every mile you earn will be worth 1 cent when redeemed for travel expenses, so you’ll have a cash back equivalent of 10% for purchases from Hotels.com. Other purchases will only have a 1.25% cash back equivalent, so you’ll typically want to use a different card for non-hotel spending.

You can also transfer miles to a variety of airline loyalty programs, where you may be able to find a better value than 1 cent each:

Airline Partner	Transfer Rate
Aeromexico Club Premier	2:1.5
Air Canada Aeroplan	2:1.5
Air France KLM Flying Blue	2:1.5
Alitalia MilleMiglia	2:1.5
Avianca LifeMiles	2:1.5
Cathay Pacific Asia Miles	2:1.5
Emirates Skywards	2:1
Etihad Guest	2:1.5
EVA Infinity MileageLands	2:1.5
Finnair Plus	2:1.5
Hainan Fortune Wings Club	2:1.5
JetBlue TrueBlue	2:1
Qantas Frequent Flyer	2:1.5
Qatar Privilege Club	2:1.5
Singapore KrisFlyer	2:1

This card is available at either the Visa Platinum or Visa Signature level, depending on your credit limit when approved. Visa Platinum cards have basic shopping and travel protections, while Visa Signature cards come with more protections and some value-adding perks.

You’ll get a 0% intro on purchases intro APR for purchases for for 12 months, giving you a year to pay off a vacation or any other expenses you might have. After that you’ll get a regular rate of 14.24% - 24.24%.

There’s no annual fee, and no foreign transaction fee.
