NerdWallet Review
The ABOC Platinum Rewards Card is an ideal option for people looking to strengthen their credit while earning rewards for their spending.
Issued by Amalgamated Bank of Chicago, the $0-annual-fee card offers some perks not generally found on products for fair credit. Most notably, it unveiled changes to its rewards program in 2019, becoming a rotating-bonus-category product that offers elevated rewards in specific areas of spending that change each quarter. Cardholders can earn:
--5 points per $1 spent on up to $1,500 in combined spending on categories that change each quarter (1 point per $1 after reaching that threshold).
--1 point per $1 on all other purchases.
Points can be redeemed online for gift cards, statement credits, merchandise and travel. Redemption values vary by method. There’s no points cap, and they don’t expire.
