How does a Travel Credit Card with Annual Fee Waivers work?
A Travel Credit Card with Annual Fee Waivers works by offering its users the benefits and rewards of a traditional travel credit card without charging an annual fee.
Cardholders can make purchases with the card and earn rewards such as travel points, miles, or cashback on eligible transactions. These rewards can be redeemed for travel-related expenses like flights, hotels, rental cars, and even other rewards or experiences.
Despite not having an annual fee, the card may still have some transaction fees or interest rates, so it's essential for users to understand the terms and conditions to make the most of the benefits while minimising costs.
How to best use a Travel Credit Card with Annual Fee Waivers?
To best use a Travel Credit Card with Annual Fee Waivers, consider these specific tips tailored to travel benefits:
Travel-related expenses
Use the card for all your travel-related expenses, such as booking flights, hotels, rental cars, and dining while traveling. This ensures you earn rewards on these purchases without paying an annual fee.
Explore travel partnerships
Some travel credit cards with annual fee waivers may have partnerships with airlines, hotel chains, or travel booking platforms. Look for such partnerships to maximise your rewards when booking with these partners.
Consider transfer partners
If the card allows you to transfer rewards to travel loyalty programs (e.g., airline or hotel loyalty programs), assess the transfer options to get more value from your rewards. This involves understanding the minimum transfer block, the point-to-frequent flyer miles conversion rate, and the transfer fee per conversion.
Pro-tip: You might be able to pool your rewards points together from credit cards of the same issuing bank to maximise miles conversion. However, this is subject to each card’s T&Cs.
Who should use a Travel Credit Card with Annual Fee Waivers?
A Travel Credit Card with Annual Fee Waivers is an excellent choice for various individuals such as the ones listed here:
Casual travellers
Infrequent travelers who don't want to pay an annual fee but still want to earn rewards on their occasional travel expenses can benefit from this type of credit card.
Budget travellers
Those who travel on a budget and want to minimise costs while still earning rewards can take advantage of a travel credit card with annual fee waivers.
Travel beginners
