Quick Assign

Use quick assign to quickly toggle this card on for Spend Categories in the calculator. If the card is already assigned, toggling off will set the category to No Selection.

Any currencies you add to the tool will be selectable when entering spend into the Spend Categories section of the calculator.

Do note that any foreign currencies selected will automatically be converted to the card's default currency when calculating rewards.

You can add elite status to one or more columns. This allows you to calculate the extra points you would receive from having status with that program.

If the status is already added, you can update the currency the status is based on by specifying a different currency than what the one in the calculator already has.

NOTE: Elite status is automatically added to the calculator for most credit cards that grant it.

Statuses

Credit Cards

Search Cards

Search through our credit card database by keyword. This is the most basic of searches. Keywords include:

Credit card name (e.g. Chase Sapphire Reserve, American Express Gold Card)
Credit card code (e.g. PLAT, CSR, VEN)
Issuing bank (e.g. American Express, Chase, U.S. Bank)
Currency (e.g. Membership Rewards Points, Altitude Points, Delta SkyMiles)
Network (e.g. Visa, Mastercard, Discover)

Skip columns with empty entries (,,). (e.g. ,, PRG2)
Spaces are ignored.
Max: 10 columns. No max on cards in a column... at the moment.

New cards will be added to the tool along with any already existing entries. When adding more than one card to a column, there will be no selected cards for the column (as in, you will have to select which cards you'll use for each category manually).

(I apologize in advance for some of the codes these credit cards have.)
