About this card

The REI Co-op Mastercard is a solid card for individuals who frequently shop at REI. The high rewards rate on REI purchases (5%) and the decent rate on all other purchases (1.5%) provide good value for REI loyalists. The absence of an annual fee and foreign transaction fees are significant advantages. Capital One backs the card, a reputable issuer, adding to the card's reliability. However, the limited redemption options (REI only) and the high APR range detract from its overall appeal. Considering these factors, a 3.6 rating reflects its strengths within its niche and the drawbacks that limit its broader appeal.
