    Editorial take: Wyndham Rewards Earner Card

    Editorial take: Bank of America Premium Rewards

    Only a standout if you're a BoA Preferred Rewards member, that boost can push earnings to 2.625x on everything, 3.5x on travel and dining. Without it, Venture and Sapphire both beat it.

    Common questions

    Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, Wyndham Rewards Earner Card or Bank of America Premium Rewards?
    Neither card has a publicly advertised sign-up bonus today. Watch for limited-time offers from each issuer.
    Is the Wyndham Rewards Earner Card's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the Bank of America Premium Rewards?
    The Wyndham Rewards Earner Card has no annual fee, so the question is whether the Bank of America Premium Rewards's $95 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the Bank of America Premium Rewards's benefits to clear $95 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the Wyndham Rewards Earner Card.
    Can I have both the Wyndham Rewards Earner Card and Bank of America Premium Rewards?
    Yes, since they're from different issuers (Barclays and Bank of America) the application rules don't conflict. Many points enthusiasts hold both, they pair well when one earns flexible bank points and the other earns a different currency.
    Should I get the Wyndham Rewards Earner Card or the Bank of America Premium Rewards first?
    Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. Wyndham Rewards Earner Card: no published min spend. Bank of America Premium Rewards: no published min spend. Pick the easier minimum spend if you're new to points; pick the larger bonus if you have planned big purchases coming up.
