Verdict
Our Pick: Citi Strata Elite Card
With a 4.4/5 rating, the Citi Strata Elite Card edges out the Capital One QuicksilverOne Cash Rewards (3.8/5). At $595/yr, the value proposition is strong. The Citi Strata Elite is Citi's premium answer to the Amex Platinum and Chase Sapphire Reserve. With up to $500 in annual credits and strong portal earning rates, it competes on value if you can use the credits.
