    Common questions

    Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, Capital One Savor or Kohl's Card?
    The Capital One Savor has a public bonus ($250 cash back, worth roughly $250), while the Kohl's Card doesn't advertise one right now.
    Is the Capital One Savor's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the Kohl's Card?
    The Capital One Savor has no annual fee, so the question is whether the Kohl's Card's $0 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the Kohl's Card's benefits to clear $0 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the Capital One Savor.
    Can I have both the Capital One Savor and Kohl's Card?
    Yes, though both are issued by Capital One so the same issuer-specific application rules apply (Chase 5/24 if applicable, Amex once-per-lifetime bonus, etc.). 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 Capital One Savor or the Kohl's Card first?
    Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. Capital One Savor: $500 spend in 3 months. Kohl's Card: 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.
