The point.me verdict

3/5

The IHG One Rewards Traveler Credit Card is the no-annual fee way to unlock IHG's fourth-night-free on award stays, making it a natural fit if you're already IHG points-rich. Earn rates are decent and, unlike Hilton's no-annual fee card, its bonus categories aren't US-restricted. Catch: a $0 annual fee means thin benefits and only entry Silver status.

What we love

  • $0 annual fee
  • Fourth-night-free on award stays, ideal if you're IHG points-rich
  • Decent bonus categories that aren't US-restricted

What we don't

  • Only entry Silver status and thin benefits, as expected at no annual fee
  • Starting in 2027, you need to spend $5,000 on the card in a calendar year to unlock the fourth-night-free benefit
