The WorldPerks® Visa® Platinum
Card, issued by U.S. Bank, is
ideal for those with very good
credit who travel regularly on
Northwest Airlines® or any of
their airline partners.
Through the rewards program,
cardholders earn one mile for
each dollar spent on purchases.
Up to five miles per dollar can
also be earned at participating
restaurants. Upon approval, up
to 10,000 bonus miles are
applied to the account. Earned
miles can be redeemed for free
travel with Northwest Airlines®
or any of their partners.
Although miles do not expire,
there are some mileage
restrictions. For instance,
those who spend more than
$60,000 in any calendar year or
over $10,000 per billing cycle
will be limited to one mile for
every two dollars spent over
that amount.
Nevertheless, those who prefer
to have their credit card bill
automatically paid in full each
month (or are members of
Northwest® WorldPerks® Platinum
Elite, Gold Elite, or Silver
Elite) will be exempt from all
reward limitations.
For an airline reward card, the
$55 annual fee is considered
reasonable, but the interest
rate applied to purchases is
above average. It is important
to note that the APRs for all
transactions are tied to the
highest Prime Rate during a
three-month period. Due to this
policy, the APRs may never reach
the lowest possible interest
rate.
In addition to the rewards
program, cardholders can expect
common platinum benefits offered
by U.S. Bank that include up to
$1,000,000 in travel accident
insurance, auto rental
insurance, purchase protection
services, and online account
access.
Therefore, those who can afford
to pay in full each month (to
avoid finance charges), plan to
sign up for the auto-payment
option (to avoid reward
limitations), and will be able
to earn a free ticket or other
travel related service within a
two-year period (due to the
annual fee) will benefit most
from what the WorldPerks® Visa®
Platinum Card has to offer.
