Evergreen® Credit Card Review
Overview
The Evergreen® Credit Card is a flat-rate cash back card from FNBO, running on the Visa network. The Evergreen® Credit Card keeps things simple, earning a flat 2x on every purchase with no categories to track or quarterly activations. There is no annual fee, which means every dollar of rewards is pure profit. New cardholders can earn 20,000 points ($200 cash bonus) after $1,000 in the first 3 billing cycles.
It is built for simplicity. There are no categories to track, no quarterly activations, and no annual fee, which makes it one of the easier cards to set and forget while still earning a respectable flat rate.
Think twice if: you have heavy, predictable spending in one category, where a card with a higher bonus rate there would simply earn you more.

Pros and cons
- Flat 2x on every purchase
- No annual fee
- Welcome offer worth about $200
- Few real drawbacks for the right user
The welcome bonus
The current welcome offer is 20,000 points ($200 cash bonus), earned after you spend $1,000 in the first 3 billing cycles. Valued honestly at a flat 1 cent per point, that is worth about $200. Stacking the welcome offer on top of a typical year of rewards and accounting for no annual fee, the first year is worth roughly $783.
Is the annual fee worth it?
The Evergreen® Credit Card has no annual fee, so there is no break-even math to worry about. Every dollar of rewards is profit, and you can keep it open for free, which also helps the average age of your credit over time.
Benefits and protections
Beyond the rewards, the perks and protections worth knowing about include:
- No categories to track and no caps
- Redeem as a statement credit, deposit, or check
Statement credits
This card does not come with recurring statement credits. Its value is in the rewards rate and welcome offer.
Who should get it, and who should skip it
It is best for anyone who wants the simplest possible setup: one flat rate on everything, no categories to track, and no annual fee to earn back.
Skip it if you have heavy, predictable spending in one category, where a card with a higher bonus rate there would simply earn you more.
