“A breakdown of annual cost, rewards categories & rates, cashback and other bonuses for all major credit cards”

This comparison covers 44 currently marketed, broadly available U.S. personal rewards cards from 12 major issuers, researched October 28, 2026. “All major” is a curated market scope — general cash-back, flexible-points and non-co-branded travel cards — not literally every U.S. card; business, secured, student, store and airline/hotel co-branded cards are excluded. Blank cells mean the source did not state that field, and cash-back percentages, bank points and miles are kept in their own units, never converted to dollars.

Annual fee by card

Each bar is one card, sorted by ongoing annual fee. Hover or tap a bar for the card’s rewards rates and welcome bonus. Cards whose source did not state a fee sit at the bottom.

no annual fee mid fee ($1–$249) premium fee ($250+) fee not stated in source

The Barclays Mastercard® Gold Card™ carries the table’s highest fee at $1,199 ($349 per authorized user), earning points on every purchase with doubled points via LuxuryCardTravel.com. cards.barclaycardus.com

The richest stated welcome offer is Amex Platinum’s “as high as 175,000” Membership Rewards points, but it demands $12,000 of spending in 6 months on top of an $895 fee. nerdwallet.com

Flat-rate earners such as Wells Fargo Active Cash (2% cash back) and Citi Double Cash (2%) need no category tracking, while category earners reach 5–6% in capped lanes — e.g. Blue Cash Preferred’s 6% at U.S. supermarkets on up to $6,000 a year. nerdwallet.com

Discover it Cash Back’s welcome offer is structural rather than a lump sum: all first-year cash back is matched, with no minimum spend. discover.com
