Credits

No statement credits, this card wins on earn rates, not coupons.

Benefits

  • Unlimited 1.5% cash back on everything
  • 0% intro APR for the first 12 months with no balance transfer fee
  • No annual fee, no foreign transaction fee, no cash advance fee
  • Ongoing APR starts lower than most cash back cards

Why it earns its spot

  • +A 0% intro period with no transfer fee is nearly extinct elsewhere
  • +Clean flat-rate earning with a real $200 bonus
  • +Credit union pricing on the back-end APR

Where it costs you

  • Membership is limited to Washington State and select nearby counties
  • 1.5% trails the 2% flat-rate leaders
  • Few premium card benefits

The Compound Verdict

On earning alone this is a midpack 1.5% card, but the package is better than the headline: a $200 bonus, credit union APRs, and the rare combination of 0% intro APR with zero balance transfer fee. That last feature makes it the cheapest debt consolidation play in the Pacific Northwest. The Washington-centric membership is the only thing keeping it regional.
