Bank of America Visa

Bank of America Travel Rewards credit card

The Bank of America Travel Rewards card is a no-annual-fee, no-foreign-transaction-fee travel card built on a flat 1.5 points per dollar, with points worth one cent each toward travel and dining statement credits. That makes it a simple 1.5% travel-erasing card that works cleanly abroad, and Preferred Rewards customers can push the rate as high as 2.62%. It carries no transfer partners or trip insurance, so it rewards simplicity rather than optimization.
