Best Credit Card Offers

Each month, Travel on Point(s) ranks the best credit card offers available. This list is always ranked on our ToP Credit Cards page and pinned as a featured post at the ToP of our Facebook group. Beginning in May 2023, we are moving this list to the blog, too, and we note any movement in rankings from the prior month (+ Moving up) or (-Moving down).

Best Credit Card Offers – ToP Thoughts

Lots of great offers this month, especially the premium offerings from Chase and Amex. If you are eligible for a CSP, it is time to grab it now. Similarly, if you are over 5/24, it is an incredible time for both the American Express Platinum and Gold. On the under 5/24 side, the big movers this month are some Star Alliance airlines cards, namely the Aeroplan and UA Business, sinking nearly double digits. The IHG Business card remains strong, as does all of the Ultimate Rewards cards. We're still not crazy about the personal Hyatt offer, although it is a long-term keeper card and one that most folks should get before passing 5/24. On the over 5/24, the most underrated card on the market is the Citi Premier. This card deserves a spot in every over-5/24 wallet out there!
