Also: New Southwest routes May 31, 2024 [THE POINTS GUY]( [View in browser]( [TPG Daily Newsletter]( TOGETHER WITH [Partner Logo]( [THE POINTS GUY]( TOGETHER WITH [Partner Logo]( Which card is right for you? by Sean Cudahy, Aviation Reporter [TPG | Hero Image] The [Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card]( and [Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card]( have similar names and many other similarities ... but which is the better one for you? Both cards currently have [hefty welcome offers of 75,000 miles]( for new cardholders who spend $4,000 on eligible purchases within the first three months. That’s $1,388 worth of points according to TPG’s valuations, and those points can go a long way when transferred to Capital One’s hotel and airline partners — 50,000-mile transfers to Air France-KLM’s Flying Blue to book business-class awards to Europe, anyone? Both cards are also well known for offering at least 2 miles per dollar on every purchase. That’s a really great way to earn bonus miles on purchases that usually aren’t part of a bonus-earning category — from paying household bills to settling up that $500 tab at the vet or dentist. So then, what are the main differences? The [Venture Rewards]( is a solid mid-tier card with a low annual fee of just $95. It offers some additional perks, like up to a $100 application fee credit for Global Entry or TSA PreCheck. The [Venture X]( comes with a higher annual fee of $395 but offers more lucrative travel benefits, like a $300 annual credit for bookings made through Capital One Travel and 10,000 bonus anniversary miles. Plus, you and up to two guests can access 1,300-plus airport lounges worldwide — including Capital One’s [popular new lounges](. Those with the Venture Rewards card get two included visits in 2024, but that perk will end Jan. 1, 2025, making the Venture X the clear way to go moving forward if you enjoy the lounge network.
