THE SHORT VERSION
Where the math gets interesting.
The registry currently lists up to $700 in recurring tracked credits against a $595 annual fee. Face value is only useful when the underlying purchases and eligibility rules fit your normal spending.
Netcarda separates the issuer's listed benefit amounts from personal value. Your own habits determine which benefits are useful.
Netcarda rule of thumb
Count a credit at full value only when you would have made the eligible purchase anyway. The issuer's terms control whether a transaction qualifies.

A SIMPLE PLAYBOOK
How to keep the timing straight.
Enroll first
Any benefit that requires enrollment should be activated before you count it in your personal value math.
Respect the reset
Monthly, quarterly, semiannual and anniversary windows can behave differently. Track the actual period, not just the annual headline number.
Revalue annually
Before the next annual fee hits, compare what you actually used against what the card cost you.

How much in recurring credits does Netcarda track?
