How these were worked out. Only cards whose rates a person read off the issuer's own published terms are ranked here. Points and miles are valued at the redemption rate the programme publishes, the rate anyone can take rather than the best one after a transfer. A rate that covers only part of entertainment — one chain of shops, one kind of merchant — is shown with what it covers and is not ranked, because it is not what the card pays on entertainment.

The right card depends on what you have already spent.

PayperWIZ holds the cards you actually own and names the right one at the till — after the cap you have already used this month, and after the foreign-currency fee. Every rate in it says whether it was read off the issuer, and none is made up.
