Benefits
- ✦No foreign transaction fee on a flat 2% card, the killer combo
- ✦Membership available through American Consumer Council affiliation

Why it earns its spot
- +The rare 2% card you can take abroad for free
- +Welcome bonus on a flat-rate card
- +Open membership despite the State Department name
Where it costs you
- −Credit union application process takes patience
- −$3,000 bonus spend is steep for a $200 payout
The Compound Verdict
The quiet champion of flat-rate cash back. Citi and Wells charge 3% abroad on their 2% cards; this one charges nothing, pays a real bonus, and lets anyone in through a consumer council membership. The clunky credit union onboarding is the only tax.
