How we estimate
- Every rate on this page comes from the card catalog. Capital One Venture X pays 2× on spending outside the bonus categories listed above, and up to 2× on everyday spending.
- We value this card's points at 1.8500000000000003¢ each. Cash back is valued at 1¢.
- Net is a year of rewards minus the annual fee. Credits count only when you tick the box.
- Welcome bonuses are left out of the tool so the numbers read as an ordinary year.
- Rent is not in the boxes: most landlords charge a fee that cancels out the rewards, and only a few cards earn on rent at all. Add rent in the full calculator, where those rules are modelled.
- Travel-portal bookings are not in the boxes, because portal prices differ from booking direct. The portal rates are in the table above.
- Rates checked with issuers in October 2026. Terms change, so confirm with the issuer before you apply. Educational estimate, not financial advice.

Credits and perks
| Credit | Sticker value | Counted |
|---|---|---|
| Priority Pass and Capital One Lounges Counted at $100 because most people do not use the full $469. Priority Pass costs up to $469 a year on its own, but most people visit a few lounges a year and many already hold another card with it, so it counts as $100 and only once per wallet. | $469 | $100 |
Sticker value is the full face amount. Counted is what the calculator credits, which is lower where most people do not use the perk in full.
