What it earns
Rates are the multipliers Barclays advertises. We do not convert them into a percentage return, because that requires putting a price on Frontier Miles and that price is a judgement, not a fact — see how we source this.
| Category | Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Frontier Airlines | 5x | |
| Dining | 3x | |
| Other | 1x | Everything else |
Statement credits
$100 a year across 1 credit against a $99 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.
