- ✦No foreign transaction fees; metal card for early applicants
Why it earns its spot
- +Miles&Smiles sweet spots make these miles worth more than most airline currencies
- +40k bonus on $3k spend is a strong ratio for a $99 card
- +Only way to earn the currency from US card spend besides transfers
Where it costs you
- −No elite status earning, lounge access or free bags despite the airline branding
- −Turkish award booking is notoriously finicky to ticket
- −2x categories are modest for a fee card
The Compound Verdict
The value here is the currency, not the card. Miles&Smiles still prices Star Alliance awards at numbers other programs abandoned years ago, and this Imprint-issued card is the only direct US earning pipe. Take the 40k bonus, put your dining and grocery spend here when topping off an award, and tolerate the missing airline perks.
