About this card
The Prime Visa earns an overall rating of 3.5 out of 5.0. This card has a good rewards program, especially for Amazon Prime members, with 5% back on Amazon and Whole Foods purchases. The lack of an annual fee and no foreign transaction fees are also strong benefits. However, the high APR range is a significant drawback, especially for those who may carry a balance. The need for a Prime membership to maximize the rewards is also a limitation. Without a reliable reputation analysis, I can not confidently rate the card higher. Strengths: Generous rewards for Amazon/Whole Foods shoppers, no annual fee, no foreign transaction fees, solid sign-up bonus. Weaknesses: High APR, requires Prime membership for full benefits.
