Who Is Capital One No Hassle Rewards Good For?

Like the Barclaycard Arrival program, Capital One No Hassle Rewards is ideal for people who are not only NOT loyal to a particular airline or hotel, they don’t want to be—and they don’t want to spend time sifting through award inventory or waiting for award seats to open up.

People who want to get the flight, hotel or car they want for whatever price they’re comfortable with and whatever dates they want, can really benefit from the extreme flexibility that Capital One’s No Hassle Rewards allows.

The cards that feed into this program have been named repeatedly as some of the top travel rewards cards by Time and CBS News, which in 2012 reported the Capital One Venture Card as the highest-rated card in a survey of which cards are most generous with their rewards.

No Hassle Rewards has a completely fixed scheme for its rewards, so you’re always getting a consistent 1-cent-per-point value. Other programs can give you a better return in many cases, particularly high-value awards like first class airfare, but that doesn’t factor in the time and effort it takes to find those reward seats.

This rewards program is a great option for people who to use their points on any flight they want, but are not interested in becoming a serious travel hacker.

It’s also a good additional card for people with other miles and points accounts who would like to travel to places where they can’t get the flights they need through their traditional airline or transfer programs.

How Can You Use Capital One No Hassle Rewards?

One thing that turns a lot of people off the No Hassle Rewards program is that until you get a Capital One reward card and sign up, it can be very hard to see exactly what you can do with the program.
