Thank you so much Mark! I seriously look forward to your videos daily. You're terrific at explaining the details and even take the time to film on separate days to show us the outcome! Keep it up 😁🙌🏻 have a great trip to Texas with your brother!
@Mark Reese Is the $300 travel credit a "use it or lose it" deal? Will it expire at the end of the annual cycle, or will it carry over year after year, until you decide to use it?
I'm impressed with your video content quality. Straight to the points and covered all details. You are so good at explaining the travel credits than other videos. Thanks!
thank you for the detailed video. it had everything i was wondering about. I just booked a flight, and hoping it will post soon in June since my travel credit resets in July.
If you get your bill & pay less than the full amount due, then sure, you'd be charged interest on anything that's not paid off. If you get your bill & pay the full amount due, then you will not be charged any interest for any purchase.
@@MarkReese In ANY and ALL scenarios where price comparison is happening. It's fairly easy for companies allow each other to read your recent browsing data across their sites and adjust their pricing automatically according to your recent activity.

No, Southwest is not available via the portal. However, you can book a Southwest flight directly, charge it to the card & then redeem Capital One miles afterward to cover all or part of the cost.
Great video Mark!! For your standard venture card you should product swap to the Savor or Savor one card. I do have a question, what is the difference between using the standalone hopper app vs the capitalone version? I am also curious about the differences between the chase travel portal and capitalone hopper(prices, choics,ect..). I find the chase portal to be better for prices and choices than amex and fairly close to usbank AR. USBs interface is not the best and generally prices are a little higher than chase. I think USB also gives you 1x with the AR card for air travel with their portal.
Great video! This would be great for booking an international trip, although I do wonder. Do you know if the Capital One portal lets you book flights for Frontier or Spirit airlines? Those are the two carriers I use to fly domestically in the US and abroad 90% of the time. Just want to make sure that I'll actually be able to use the travel credit to offset the AF! :)
When did this travel credit show up for you on your anniversary day? A few days after? Mine was yesterday, but nothing today, and called them, and they said I will have to wait.
See the pinned comment. The $300 travel credit has changed. It now is applied during checkout when you book the trip rather than a credit that you receive later.
@@MarkReese I know but when, how may days after the anniversary, will it appear? It doesnt appear on my app yet; my anniversary date was yesterday. Does it take a week?
Damn Mark, $26 for a haircut? Man, buy a set of clippers and cut your hair yourself brother! Is easy!! I being doing it since high school! 😂 cheers brother 🍻
I'm gardening to get under 5/24 and apply for a CSP to mate with my CFF, but every time I look at this Venture X it seems VERY tempting. I still have a while before I pull the trigger on a CSP, so I'm thinking about it. I don't really spend enough or travel enough to justify having both, but believe I could get good value out of one or the other. I already have the normal love/hate relationship with Capital One, lol.
Yes, it's valid for all purchases thru the C1 Travel Portal. Here are the terms: _"You will receive a statement credit for up to $300 in purchases made via Capital One Travel. The $300 statement credit will be provided as a single credit if the Capital One Travel purchase is greater than or equal to $300, or in multiple statement credits until the total Capital One Travel purchases are greater than or equal to $300. The credit will appear in your account within 1-7 business days, but it may take up to 2 billing cycles after purchase. If the credited Capital One Travel purchase is canceled, the statement credit may be removed from your account, though it can be reissued on any past or future Capital One Travel purchases up to $300. Your Venture X card account must be open and in good standing at the time of statement credit fulfillment."_
Struggle to decide which card to go with altitude reserve vs venture x. Don’t love portals. But don’t really use mobile wallet much. What are your thoughts between the 2?
If you don't like portals, go with the U.S. Bank Altitude Reserve. Earning 3X on all Travel is great, plus the $325 annual credit works for travel & dining outside of a portal, too.
Excellent video! I haven't had much luck with CapOne even tho my primary bank accounts are with them, do you have any tips? I'm hoping for the Savor Student card eventually. The Venture X is a great premium travel card, without all of the fluff!
He Mark quick question i know it's late and it seems silly but lets say I only spend $250 worth of credit do I lose the $50 in credit.. or is it saved an applied to my next travel
I have booked several trips for someone else using the card but the credit just won't post. Do I need to book trips for myself in order for the credit to apply?
Glad it helped! Capital One (historically) allows 2 personal credit cards...so not counting business cards or co-branded cards. I'm not sure how strictly this is enforced these days.
Considering that I have both, absolutely 👍 - Amex Platinum = best for perks / benefits (e.g. elite status with Marriott & Hilton, Fine Hotels & Resorts program, most comprehensive lounge access program of any card on the market, credits with Uber, streaming, and more, etc.) - C1VX = best for rewards earning and 2 specific benefits (C1 Lounge access and Priority Pass, which has broader access than the Platinum's version due to restaurants being included)
Wow That was pretty cool I travel 2 times a year internationally and I would like to have lounge access I’m thinking between the venture X the Us bank altitude reserve because I can justify their annual fees easily
Great! The U.S. Bank Altitude Reserve's Priority Pass membership offers 4 free visits per year, whereas the Priority Pass membership from the C1 Venture X is unlimited. Keep that in mind based on how often you plan to use lounges.
@@nicolasgamboa5857 - 4 visits for you and 4 visits for guests. Here's what the terms say: "As a U.S. Bank Altitude™ Reserve Visa Infinite® cardmember, you have access to 4 free cardmember airport lounge visits and 4 free guest airport lounge visits per membership year. Each member visit and each accompanying guest(s) visit applies against the free visit allowance. After the free visits have been used, the member’s Altitude Reserve credit card will be charged a lounge visit fee of $32 per person per visit for the member and each guest."
There's a distinction with Capital One. To quote from the Military Money Manual blog: _"Capital One _*_does not_*_ waive annual fees on cards opened while on active duty under Military Lending Act or MLA. Capital One _*_does_*_ waive fees for military when the account is opened before active duty in accordance with the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act or SCRA."_
Perhaps I missed or doesn’t apply to this portal, but if I was to get the TSA pre check , do I do it through this portal or separate and then get reimbursed?
So after you receive the $300 tc you can used it to pay (factor from the amount you spend to the tix?) I’m new to C1V. Also do you have an ex in redeeming the tc to booking a hotel? Thank you for making this video
Hey Mark, when you say that you get $300 annual travel credit, does that mean that when this year ends, it is renewed? Or is it based on my anniversary date?
How's the value on the travel portal compared to booking though directly with the vendor or via other platforms? That's always the hidden question on whether or not the credit is really being earned.
Mark, are you able to consolidate Cap1 points? I have a venture, about to apply for venture X and the downgrade original venture to non AF card(due to life age if acct). But i have not found much info on this subject?
Sure. Here's the process... 1. Log into your C1 account 2. Click on a Venture card you have 3. Select the Redeem button 4. Choose Move Rewards 5. Use the tool to move rewards from one account to another
Hey Mark, does the Venture X travel credit work just like the CSR travel credit where you would have to spend 300 in travel categories or just book travel through the C1 travel portal? How does the CSR travel credit compare to the Venture X travel credit? I thought the CSR you just have to spend 300 in travel whether it's tolls, buses, hotels, airlines etc to get reimbursed the 300 not use the Chase Travel portal unlike the C1 Venture X travel portal. Thanks for responses! I hope this isn't a complicated question. I think I can see why the Venture X is more popular than the regular Venture
Hey Mark When booking using capital one portal for hotels or car rental: Does the c1 portal charge ur card right away? Or the hotels or car rental charge ur card when u arrive there or checking in?
@@MarkReese if and when you are able to confirm this, please do! I can’t find anything on Google and there is no email contact for capital one? Didn’t feel like waiting on the phone to get an answer by calling capital one.
I still have to wait 5 months before i will try and apply again. I got denied last month because of too many cards i applied(that is because i applied 4 credit cards from chase in one year 😬)…
@@MarkReese well I have 3 credit cards under my name and I have 1 that I’m a authorized user on, and I have a auto loan under my name. Would that already the 5/24 rule?
@@shengduh8740 - Only bank cards count, not auto loans. So you have 3 individual cards + 1 AU card ... and were they all opened or added within the past 24 months?
@@shengduh8740 - Since only 1 of them falls within the past 24 months, it seems like you're at 1/24 👍 To clarify, is the "10K" you mentioned for the Capital One Venture as $10,000 credit limit ... or a 10,000-point upgrade offer?
Hey Mark, Do you know if Venture card holders can product change to a Venture X?…. Also, I really appreciate the work you put into these videos that keep us all well informed.
I keep hearing for vacation rental credit, you don't really need to book with airbnb or vrbo. Is that true? Can you use the portal to earn that extra $200 credit?
Advice needed: I got denied for the VenturX about 2 months ago due to having over 20 credit cards. I then opened a savings account with Capital One. "Now" it looks like I have excellent chances of being approved for the regular Venture. Should I go for the Venture, and upgrade 6months later or wait ✋️ until my chances for the VentureX improves. I'm also looking to add the United Club card and the Ink unlimited cards?
I personally wouldn't do it. However, if you do, it's my understanding you'll need to wait 1 year to upgrade from the Venture to the Venture X, not 6 months.
I just got Venture X Card, I know they only offer $100 credit for Global Entry/Pre-Check but I am applying for all 4 of my family members fo Global Entry do you know if other $300 will be applied against Travel Credit ?
Awesome video, Mark! I hope you can answer a few of my questions. I got this card just today and I can't find clear info on what benefits you need to register or activate, most of the visa infinite benefits particularly. The luxury hotel collection validation page rejects my card number. How do you know which ones you actually get? For the priority pass, do you just walk in there and show your card? I see they have their own app and their own membership subscription pages, but nothing about how this all works with the venture X.
Hey Ionic Tech! Congrats on getting the Venture X 💥 1. To view the card benefits... - Log into your Capital One account - Click on your Venture X card - Click on the Gear Icon that says "I want to..." - Under Benefits & Rewards, you'll see an option to view benefits 2. For Priority Pass, you need to enroll & receive your separate PP membership card in the mail. Here's the direct link to do that: www.capitalone.com/credit-cards/benefits/
Regarding "safer..." probably. Secured cards will nearly always be easier for approvals compared to regular unsecured cards. Still a good score, well done 👍
@@MarkReese My thought process was, I have no relationship to US Bank except a card from Elan Financial, and their Secured cards are actually pretty good. Hoping I could just have better luck with that and hope it graduates one day
I have a credit card with a $80.00 annual fee & a $12.00 monthly fee. I don't want to cancel the card bc it's the oldest credit card I have and I know the affects your credit. Can you pls tell me how to handle this so I don't mess my credit up?
@@MarkReese Yes, I was in bankruptcy when I got these 2 cards. I got the cards to try and build my credit back up. My bankruptcy was cleared at the end of December 2021.
Quick question to anyone that has this card. I have the Venture X and I'm working on the 100k Bonus. Capital One has a tracker on their app and website which tells you how much more you need to spend to get it. I checked my account today and the bonus tracker is gone. I checked on the app and on the website and can't find it anywhere. I know for damn sure it hasn't been 6 months yet. Anyone else having this issue???
@@MarkReese it was around $7500 I was going to pay some bills these coming weeks but now not really sure how to track the bonus. I don't trust C1 to give me the bonus once I hit the 10k mark. I had an issue with them last year in not giving me a sign up bonus for their checking account. I had to escalate the issue for someone to manually review my account to see that I did in fact complete the terms and get my bonus. Took months. 😔
Just got off the phone with a rep and his response was that I was at a little over 8k spend and that he's "heard" of when you get closer to the 10k limit the tracker goes away. And once I hit the 10k mark it should trigger the bonus and I'll get the bonus in my account in 1-2 billing cycles. How long did you have to wait for the 100k miles to show on your account?
@@Al3xTrucho20 - Hmm got it. Personally, I'd add up the transactions you've made to get an exact number. I don't recall how long the wait was for the 100K miles, though it was quick.

Wait is this a repost? Haha. I thought you are booking for Dec. 2022.
Not a repost. I filmed the flight booking back in Dec., but didn't get to publishing it until now ✌️
@Mark Reese, which one do you recommend I’m getting a pre-approval for a venture for 10K or should I go with a CSP for the points.
So the question is a 10K offer vs. 60K offer? Are you below 5/24?
@@MarkReese well I have 3 credit cards under my name and I have 1 that I’m a authorized user on, and I have a auto loan under my name. Would that already the 5/24 rule?
@@shengduh8740 - Only bank cards count, not auto loans. So you have 3 individual cards + 1 AU card ... and were they all opened or added within the past 24 months?
@@MarkReese
Amex-2015
Capital One-2018
First Premier-2018
JP Freedom-2021
So would this cards fall under the 5/24 rule
@@shengduh8740 - Since only 1 of them falls within the past 24 months, it seems like you're at 1/24 👍
To clarify, is the "10K" you mentioned for the Capital One Venture as $10,000 credit limit ... or a 10,000-point upgrade offer?
Hey Mark, Do you know if Venture card holders can product change to a Venture X?…. Also, I really appreciate the work you put into these videos that keep us all well informed.
Venture cardholders can product change to Venture X. You can also do it online instead of calling in you don’t want to
Thank you!
Hi Carlos - yes you can. However, no welcome bonus will be offered. An exception would be if you get targeted specifically with an _upgrade offer._
Thanks!
@@CarlosAJ1 👍
Is the $300 credit an annual thing?
It sure is! 👍
I keep hearing for vacation rental credit, you don't really need to book with airbnb or vrbo. Is that true? Can you use the portal to earn that extra $200 credit?
Data points are varied. A lot of other travel purchases have been working. Mine worked for rent 😂✌️
Advice needed: I got denied for the VenturX about 2 months ago due to having over 20 credit cards. I then opened a savings account with Capital One. "Now" it looks like I have excellent chances of being approved for the regular Venture. Should I go for the Venture, and upgrade 6months later or wait ✋️ until my chances for the VentureX improves. I'm also looking to add the United Club card and the Ink unlimited cards?
I personally wouldn't do it. However, if you do, it's my understanding you'll need to wait 1 year to upgrade from the Venture to the Venture X, not 6 months.
@@MarkReese Yeah, it's just best for me to stay focused on Chase for now. Thanks bro.
I just got Venture X Card,
I know they only offer $100 credit for Global Entry/Pre-Check
but I am applying for all 4 of my family members fo Global Entry
do you know if other $300 will be applied against Travel Credit ?
Congrats on your Venture X approval, Ashu! The $300 Travel Credit cannot be used for TSA PreCheck or Global Entry.
Awesome video, Mark! I hope you can answer a few of my questions. I got this card just today and I can't find clear info on what benefits you need to register or activate, most of the visa infinite benefits particularly. The luxury hotel collection validation page rejects my card number. How do you know which ones you actually get? For the priority pass, do you just walk in there and show your card? I see they have their own app and their own membership subscription pages, but nothing about how this all works with the venture X.
Hey Ionic Tech! Congrats on getting the Venture X 💥
1. To view the card benefits...
- Log into your Capital One account
- Click on your Venture X card
- Click on the Gear Icon that says "I want to..."
- Under Benefits & Rewards, you'll see an option to view benefits
2. For Priority Pass, you need to enroll & receive your separate PP membership card in the mail. Here's the direct link to do that: www.capitalone.com/credit-cards/benefits/
@@MarkReese Awesome! Thank you very much!
@@IonicTechYT - You got it!
It's weird cause I booked a hotel thru the cap 1 portal and I still have not gotten the 300 dollar redemption 🙄🙄🙄
Did you pay upfront? If so, how long ago did it post to your account?
@@MarkReese yes I paid upfront I paid for it in the beginning of January and it still hasn't posted
@@ovx23 - I'd contact Capital One and ask.
If my scores are right around 700, would it safer when applying for US Bank to apply for one of their good secured cards and hopes it graduates?
Regarding "safer..." probably. Secured cards will nearly always be easier for approvals compared to regular unsecured cards. Still a good score, well done 👍
@@MarkReese My thought process was, I have no relationship to US Bank except a card from Elan Financial, and their Secured cards are actually pretty good. Hoping I could just have better luck with that and hope it graduates one day
I have a credit card with a $80.00 annual fee & a $12.00 monthly fee. I don't want to cancel the card bc it's the oldest credit card I have and I know the affects your credit.
Can you pls tell me how to handle this so I don't mess my credit up?
To clarify, you have 2 cards total?
How old is each one?
What's your current credit score?
@@MarkReese Yes, two cards. My credit score is 645. The oldest card is about 8 years old.
@@lt2195 - Have you identified the credit factors that are keeping your score down?
@@MarkReese Yes, I was in bankruptcy when I got these 2 cards. I got the cards to try and build my credit back up. My bankruptcy was cleared at the end of December 2021.
@@lt2195 - Got it, and great that you got it cleared up 👊 Is your oldest card the one with the $80 annual fee? How old is the 2nd one?
Quick question to anyone that has this card. I have the Venture X and I'm working on the 100k Bonus. Capital One has a tracker on their app and website which tells you how much more you need to spend to get it. I checked my account today and the bonus tracker is gone. I checked on the app and on the website and can't find it anywhere. I know for damn sure it hasn't been 6 months yet. Anyone else having this issue???
My tracker disappeared too 😕 However, I did complete the spend prior to it going away. Do you know how much you spent on the card already?
@@MarkReese it was around $7500 I was going to pay some bills these coming weeks but now not really sure how to track the bonus. I don't trust C1 to give me the bonus once I hit the 10k mark. I had an issue with them last year in not giving me a sign up bonus for their checking account. I had to escalate the issue for someone to manually review my account to see that I did in fact complete the terms and get my bonus. Took months. 😔
Just got off the phone with a rep and his response was that I was at a little over 8k spend and that he's "heard" of when you get closer to the 10k limit the tracker goes away. And once I hit the 10k mark it should trigger the bonus and I'll get the bonus in my account in 1-2 billing cycles. How long did you have to wait for the 100k miles to show on your account?
@@Al3xTrucho20 - Hmm got it. Personally, I'd add up the transactions you've made to get an exact number. I don't recall how long the wait was for the 100K miles, though it was quick.
