How we work
The promises that don't bend — whether there's a referral deal on the table or not.
- 1
Honest first, affiliate second
The best card for you gets the recommendation — deal or no deal. Negative verdicts get published, never softened.
- 2
No spam, ever
No popups, no interstitials, no TOP-10 listicle energy. One disclosed referral link where it has earned its place.
- 3
Numbers carry dates
Every fee and rate is stamped with the month it was verified against the source. Stale data gets pulled.
- 4
One source of truth
Card facts live in one data file and flow to every page that cites them. A fee change updates everywhere at once.
- 5
Built to compound
Reviews, comparisons, and guides stay maintained for years. This is a publication, not a content blast.
Cards we're reviewing
16 cards, each given the same deep read — fee schedules, T&Cs, availability. Nothing publishes before a full research pass. Here's where the top tier stands.
| No. | Card | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | Reviewed | |
| 02 | Reviewed | |
| 03 | Reviewed | |
| 04 | Reviewed | |
| 05 | Reviewed |
Plus 11 more in Tiers 2–3 — see the full queue. Referral relationships are disclosed right in the table, and they never touch the verdict.
How a review gets made
-
Step 1
Primary sources only
Numbers come from fee schedules, T&Cs, and official docs — never from other blogs. Every claim links to where it was found.
-
Step 2
Every score, explained
Every score is justified line by line, and every review names where the card falls short — including the ones I like.
-
Step 3
Checked again every month
Live card data gets re-checked against the source every 30 days, and the verification date prints on the page.
How we make money
This site earns referral commissions — and tells you exactly where.
Some links earn a commission when you sign up. Right now there's exactly one such deal — ether.fi — and it gets no say in scores, rankings, or verdicts. Cards with no deal are reviewed with the same depth.
