The Capital One Savor Cash Rewards card is great for entertainment and food, as it offers 4% cashback on dining, entertainment, and popular streaming services, 3% cash back at groceries and 1% cash back everywhere else. This card offers travel benefits too; like no foreign transaction fee and 24-hour travel assistance. It is one of the only credit cards still offering price protection.
- Credit: Excellent credit needed
- Max cards: Capital One will only let you have a maximum of 2 personal Capital One branded credit cards. (This excludes co-branded credit cards like the Capital One Walmart Rewards card.)
- You can only get approved for 1 Capital One card every 6 months
- Credit bureau: Capital One will usually pull your Experian, Transunion, and Equifax credit reports
- If you freeze one credit bureau you can still get approved (the credit bureau you freeze cannot be Transunion)
- Combining same-day credit inquiries: Credit inquiries for same-day applications will be combined. Note, Capital One will only approve you for one credit card application within every six months. (Combining credit inquiries will only make a difference when declined for your first try and you want to try a new one)
