About this card

The USAA Eagle Navigator® Visa Signature® Credit Card earns an excellent overall rating of 4.1 out of 5.0. This card stands out for its exceptionally strong rewards program and annual benefits, which significantly outweigh its $95 annual fee. Cardholders earn a competitive 3X points on travel and transit and an impressive 2X points on all other purchases, making it highly rewarding for everyday spending as well as travel. A key differentiator is the combination of up to $120 in TSA PreCheck® or Global Entry® credit every four years and an annual 10,000 bonus points ($100 in travel value) for booking through the USAA Rewards Center. These perks total at least $130 in annual value, effectively providing a net positive value that more than offsets the $95 annual fee, making the card 'free' for active users. The absence of foreign transaction fees is another crucial advantage for a travel card. Furthermore, the card is backed by USAA's strong reputation for customer service and trust, particularly within the military community, and offers comprehensive travel protections. While its regular APR range of 18.40% to 26.65% is notably high, and the 5% fees for balance transfers and cash advances are significant drawbacks, these are less impactful for responsible cardholders with 'Very Good' credit who typically pay their balances in full. For its target audience of USAA members who pay their statement balance, this card offers substantial value and easily justifies its place as an excellent travel rewards option.
