 TITLE: How to Earn Credit Card Points Fast CONTENT: For example, the Chase Sapphire Reserve® earns 10 points per dollar on hotels and car rentals and 5 points on air travel booked through Ultimate Rewards (after earning your annual $300 travel credit), and 3 points per dollar on other travel and dining. It earns 1 point per dollar on almost everything else. By contrast, the Hilton Honors American Express Surpass® Card earns 12 bonus points per dollar on purchases directly with a hotel or resort within the Hilton portfolio. It earns 6 bonus points per dollar at U.S. restaurants, U.S. supermarkets and U.S. gas stations; and 3 points per dollar on everything else. So by using the Chase Sapphire Reserve® card for airfare, general travel and dining, and the Hilton card for Hilton stays, groceries and gas, you could have a winning combo to rake in both Ultimate Rewards points (which are transferable to several airline and hotel loyalty programs) and Hilton Honors points at a pretty good clip.
