The verdict
On a typical year of household spending, the Bank of America® Customized Cash Rewards earns about $491 a year in rewards and the JetBlue Plus about $382, valuing every point at a flat 1 cent. The Bank of America® Customized Cash Rewards has no annual fee, so its rewards are all profit. The JetBlue Plus charges $99, but carries about $100 in annual statement credits that offset it for anyone who uses them. Counting rewards, fees, and any credits, the Bank of America® Customized Cash Rewards delivers more total value, about $158 a year more for a typical spender, mostly because it earns more where you spend most, on gas and travel. Neither leans on transferable points, so the deciding factors are the welcome offer, the card network, and which everyday perks you will actually use. On the sign-up bonus, the JetBlue Plus currently has the larger welcome offer. A welcome bonus is a one-time event, so weigh it apart from the ongoing rewards.
Pick the Bank of America® Customized Cash Rewards if your spending leans toward dining, gas, travel.
