The Compound Verdict

Fine as a free discount engine if you cruise Carnival every year, pointless otherwise. The bigger story is the September 2026 transition to the Carnival Rewards Mastercard, which will convert FunPoints automatically but rewrite the earning structure. If you are not in a hurry, it may be worth waiting to see the new card before applying.
