How big of a geek do you have to be to get this?
I think it’s great. If you can get a great credit card and support your favorite team from MLB, NFL, college, etc, not to mention NASCAR, special interest groups, charities, etc., why not have a credit card for a game? Especially when you can earn reward points you will use. I say if you are a WoW fan and need a new credit card, go for it!
It’s effectively only a 1% cash back card at $15 a month to play (less if you buy more at time normally). It’s better to get something like the Chase Freedom card and use the cash back to buy the subscription.
PK: You’re correct, there are some better rewards cards out there. I personally use the Chase Freedom card, and I love it. But there are some people who are willing to get a rewards card or other credit card based on the logo of the card or the type of rewards rather than the best financial deal.
I personally prefer a cash rewards card over a miles or points rewards system because I prefer cash over dealing with trading in points or miles. But there are some people who swear by the points system. Thanks for the comment!
