Editors Review

Pros

  • No annual fee
  • 0% APR on purchases in the first 12 months
  • 1500 bonus points after spending $1000 in the first 3 month
  • 2 points per $1 spent on restaurants and entertainment
  • 1 point per $1 on other purchases
  • EMV chip – good for travel and better security

Cons

  • 3% Foreign transaction fee

Verdict

Good option for students with no credit. Not a great sign up bonus, but student cards with no annual fee usually do not offer any bonus at all. A good rewards rate will help you get an extra on your spending.
