Editors Review

Pros

  • no annual fee
  • 4 PNC points per dollar sound great

Cons

  • PNC points value is not great - 1/4-1/2 cents each 
  • 3% international transaction fee
  • excellent credit needed

Verdict

The card offers 4 points per dollar and also provides with a 25-75% points boost if you have a PNC checking account.

The problem here is that PNC points can be redeemed through a PNC points center and you will find that the value is not great - mostly between 1/4 or 1/2 cents each. We do not recommend this card.  With an excellent credit you will easily find a better earning card for you - US Bank Cash+, or Amex EveryDay.
