The point.me verdict

3/5

The Capital One Spark Cash Select earns 1.5% back on everything with no cap and no annual fee, and its real edge is converting that cash back into transferable Capital One miles if you hold an eligible Venture card. Heavy spenders may regret skipping a card that earns 2x for as little as $95.
