The Sofi card is a new card from Sofi bank. I don't see any major value to the card except for the fact that it's another 2% cashback credit card. The benefits are mostly the standard MasterCard benefits. One thing unique about the card is that it's the only card earning 2% cashback with no annual fee and also no foreign transaction fees. So this is the perfect card for someone studying aboard and looking for a good 2% cash back - no annual fee card.
