The Choice Privileges Mastercard is currently featuring an increased introductory offer of 60,000 Choice Privileges points after spending $1,000 on purchases in the first 90 days. That’s a solid offer for the no-annual-fee version of the card (in fact, it matches the offer for the $95-annual-fee Choice Privileges Mastercard Select while requiring less spend).

Quick Thoughts
Our Reasonable Redemption Value for Choice Privileges points is 0.75c per point, which would make this offer worth about $450. That’s a solid return on just $1,000 spend on a card with no annual fee. If you’re able to cherry pick higher-value Choice redemptions, you can do even better.
That said, keep in mind that Wells Fargo Autograph cards transfer 1:2 to Choice Privileges, so if your ultimate goal is Choice points, you might be better off with a card like the Autograph Journey given that the welcome bonus on a card like that would yield far more Choice Privileges points at the 1:2 transfer ratio.
