I feel like if it wasn’t for the dependence on the C1 portal (which wasn’t too bad booking a hotel with my SavorOne) and the lack of domestic airline and valuable hotel transfer partners, the Capital One duo would be a powerhouse. Hopefully Wells Fargo doesn’t make the same mistakes with their transfer partners.

@LukesPointsandMiles 8 месяцев назад

Those are definitely negatives but I’m always able to book domestic flights with these airlines.

@jarrod499 7 месяцев назад

Regarding the gaps in the set up, you listed travel and gas and phone protection. The WF autograph addresses all three and looks like it or the new journey card will be getting transfer partners. I do have to push back a little on the travel category gap. The VX bonus being tied to the portal is annoying, the thing is because of insurance I still think that it makes sense to put flights, and rental cars on it when booking direct even if you have a card with a better bonus. That leaves (non prepaid hotels). A gap but not as big as all travel, and if your spend is high enough that the points on all your paid travel is a big deal (or you go on expensive cruises) then you really should get the CSR not the VX. You need the higher insurance limits.

@scottshapiro2795 8 месяцев назад

I really enjoy this setup. As you said, it's just simple. Yes, you're leaving money on the table, but sometimes that's worth if you don't want a binder of credit cards, or need an app to track all the credits. I just like how simple this is, I think that's a big draw of this setup. I used to use this setup exclusively, but since the CFU had the 2x points SUB, I've been using the Chase trifecta for the past few months. After that's done, I think I'll go back to C1, and maybe dip my toes in Chase just to have access to two different ecosystems. Use the CFF for rotating categories, and the CSP for the hotel credit, and the occasional dinner out if I want to earn Chase points instead of C1 points.

@jarrod499 7 месяцев назад

If I were looking for a weakness in the setup I’d say it’s in a weak mid complexity usage. On the simple end, quasi cash back is great, you get one cent per point and don’t even have to use the portal outside the credit (erase travel expenses). On the other hand the setup enables high complexity high value, through transfers to a wide array of foreign airlines . What the setup is missing is a Southwest Airlines that would let you get a 30-40% increase in value with dead simple redemptions.

@Thezestypirate 7 месяцев назад

For me, I think the C1 Duo really shines because of two things. Yeah the lack of incentive to use the portal over transfer partners is a bummer, but I try to stock up on points and just pay cash when I book domestic trips. The one great peace of mind of the portal is the price match ability to lock in the cheaper, direct booking price for hotels (haven’t price matched a flight yet) while also reaping the 10x benefits. The second thing for me is the broad entertainment category for the S1. Getting 3% back at concerts, movies, tourist attractions, record stores (big one for me), and more just really makes the earnings optimized for me. I pray there will be a way to earn elevated gas earnings with C1 one day….

There's value with Capital One, but it comes with a bunch of headaches which is not the case with Chase.

Would you recommend using the Savor One + the regular Venture card as a duo to start off? @Luke

@LukesPointsandMiles 12 дней назад

@@Kalinrzavala I think that a great duo as well but I would just jump straight into the VX. It’s a superior product in every way for anyone they might travel at least once a year

@@LukesPointsandMiles thank you for the quick reply 👍🏼 I’ve had the QuickSilver card for a few years already, and recently got a “pre approved” offer on the SavorOne card. And I believe I could switch my Quicksilver card over to the Venture card with no application needed.. what do you think about going that route?

I have a platinum card, they offered me an upgrade to a savor one. What happens to my platinum card when I upgrade?

@LukesPointsandMiles 6 месяцев назад

I’m not sure what you mean? Your platinum card will turn into a much better card. Credit history will stay the same.

@fallin4676 6 месяцев назад

Will the platinum card become inactive or does it still have a credit limit?

Great video thank you! My question is, isn’t the savor one card a master card ? I have called capital one and they have said it’s a 50/50 chance of it being visa or master card. They told me they couldn’t tell me what it was in tell I got the card in the mail. Can you please confirm if this is correct. Thank you in advance

@LukesPointsandMiles 8 месяцев назад

Mine is definitely a Mastercard.

I was a capital one venture guy from day one, grandfathered in to the $59 AF. But with my families spend habits I can get almost 100,000 more UR points a year just from daily card use than I can with capital one. I wish they had a rotating category card too.

@LukesPointsandMiles 7 месяцев назад

Wow 100k “more”? That’s substantial and we all really like UR points.
