Verdict

A great card, assuming you spend at least $3,000 on the card per month. If you do, the card will benefit you a lot. Combining all spending bonuses, you will be able to get a couple round trips to Europe with ease.

No foreign transaction fee and chip on the card will help you when travelling abroad.
