Statement credits
$250 a year across 3 credits against a $95 annual fee. The columns that matter are the cap and the reset date: a credit paid monthly cannot be saved up, and one that resets on the calendar year expires on 31 December no matter when you opened the card.
Other perks
Benefits that are not dollar statement credits — certificates, lounge visits, point bonuses. Where a value appears it is an estimate, not an amount the issuer credits you, and it is excluded from the credits total above.
