-<li>'''The main reason to get this card is its 4x points on restaurant spending'''. It is the best no-annual-fee cashback option. {{Link|restaurant spending}}.</li>
+<li>'''4% on travel is good'''. But you can do a little better with the best travel reward cards. While it usually won't make sense to buy prepaid hotels and cars through the Altitude Rewards Center, if you do, you'll get 5%. {{Link|travel spending}}.</li>
 <li>'''The other bonus category reward rates are not very interesting'''. You should be earning at least as much with your general-purpose reward card and can do even better with a card that earns bonus rewards for these categories. And you never want to use this card for your everyday purchases.</li>

 <li>'''Streaming bonus'''. If you use the card to pay for a streaming service for 11 months in a row, you'll receive a credit for the 12<sup>th</sup> month (up to $30 per year). Not much, but at least the card earns 2% rewards on the ongoing charges.</li>

 === Collecting the Signup Bonus ===
-{{Signup Intro|interesting|bonus categories}} {{Signup Amount|$200}} The bonus offer is not that great, but it is a pretty nice side benefit for a no-annual-fee card that you might want for its bonus categories.
+{{Signup Intro|high|bonus categories}} {{Signup Amount|$500}} The bonus category rates are good, but probably not worth holding onto the card after the initial year (and paying the $95 annual fee).
