What it earns
Rates are the multipliers Synchrony Bank advertises. We do not convert them into a percentage return, because that requires putting a price on Sam's Cash and that price is a judgement, not a fact — see how we source this.
| Category | Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Gas | 5x | |
| EV Charging | 5x | |
| Dining | 3x | |
| Other | 1x | Everything else |
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.
| Perk | How often | Estimated value |
|---|---|---|
| Sam's Club Membership RequiredAn active Sam's Club membership is required to hold and use this card. Club membership starts at $50 per year and Plus membership at $110 per year. The card itself has no annual fee, but the membership cost is effectively an annual cost of carrying it. Plus members separately earn 2% Sam's Cash on qualifying Sam's Club purchases through the membership — that is a membership benefit, not a card benefit. | Once a year | — |
| Sam's Cash Rewards CapsThe 5% rate on gas and EV charging applies to the first $6,000 spent per year; spending beyond that earns 1%. Total cash back earned across all categories is capped at $5,000 per calendar year. Sam's Cash is loaded to your membership monthly and can be redeemed for most Sam's Club purchases or cashed out in club. | Once a year | — |
| No Foreign Transaction FeesNo foreign transaction fees on purchases made outside the United States. This card previously charged a 3% foreign transaction fee; that fee has been removed. | Once a year | — |
