    Common questions

    Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, Norwegian Cruise Line World Mastercard or Capital One Savor?
    The two cards offer comparable sign-up bonuses around $250. Pick based on which earning categories you actually use.
    Is the Norwegian Cruise Line World Mastercard's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the Capital One Savor?
    The Norwegian Cruise Line World Mastercard has no annual fee, so the question is whether the Capital One Savor's $0 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the Capital One Savor's benefits to clear $0 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the Norwegian Cruise Line World Mastercard.
    Can I have both the Norwegian Cruise Line World Mastercard and Capital One Savor?
    Yes, since they're from different issuers (Bank of America and Capital One) 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 Norwegian Cruise Line World Mastercard or the Capital One Savor first?
    Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. Norwegian Cruise Line World Mastercard: $1,000 spend in 3 months. Capital One Savor: $500 in 3 months. Pick the easier minimum spend if you're new to points; pick the larger bonus if you have planned big purchases coming up.
