Our Review
Best Western Mastercard credit card
The Best Western Mastercard credit card is a rewards card for frequenters of the hotel chain. Holders can earn unlimited points on all eligible purchases, to be redeemed at Best Western locations on hotel stays, dining, gift cards and more. Points are earned at a rate of 5 points per dollar spent at Best Western locations and 1 point per dollar on all other eligible purchases. The card has no annual fee, but the redemptions options are not flexible and point earnings are low for purchases made outside of Best Western locations. If you frequent this hotel chain and want to reap some rewards, this may be the card for you, but if you don’t stay here often you might be better off choosing a card with higher earnings and more flexible rewards.
