How it scores a purchase

Up to three things pay you on one purchase, and they stack. Cardful adds them up and picks the card with the biggest total.

01

A shopping portal

A portal like Rakuten shares the store's commission with you. It only counts if you click through before checkout.

02

A credit card offer

Your bank's offers pay a statement credit, but only on the card the offer is on, so they can change the winner.

03

Your card's own rate

Points converted to dollars at a published, dated value.

=

One total

The per-dollar rates, added. A flat reward with a minimum spend sits beside the total, not inside it.

Three ways to get the answer

01

Click the icon, or wait for checkout

Click Cardful in your toolbar on any of 2,756 recognized stores and it names the best card there. At checkout it appears on its own.

02

Search a store

Look up 2,756 merchants by name, each with its own bonuses, network rules and traps.

03

Fix it once

Correct a wrong guess and it stays fixed for that site.

Works for couples

01

Their cards count too

Add your partner's cards and they're ranked with yours, labelled by owner: "Sam's Gold Card". They don't need an account.

02

See each other's offers

Invite them by email. Once they accept, you both see each other's offers at checkout.

03

One Pro covers both

One subscription does the offer work for both of you. Only cards and offers are shared, and either of you can stop sharing anytime.

Why dollars, not multipliers

"4x points" means nothing until you know what a point is worth. Cardful converts every rate to dollars first. Redeem differently? Set your own values.
