VIENNA, Va.–Navy FCU has enhanced its More Rewards American Express card, adding more points at restaurants and creating a new bonus category for transit spending.
Among the new perks to be added in September on the no-annual-fee card is a limited-time 0% introductory APR offer for 12 months. According to Navy FCU, the new features make it easier for more cardholders to collect rewards on everyday spending.
“As we think about the diversity of the member experience that exists among Navy Federal members, we realized that the gas 3X multiplier was sort of leaving out a segment of members who are commuting to work by metro or by bus,” Justin Zeidman, head of credit card products at Navy FCU, told NerdWallet.com. “We really wanted to make sure that we were creating a value proposition that rewards all of our members for all the ways they eat and for all the ways they commute.”
The transit category will include ridesharing services, tolls, ferries, parking lots and garages, limos, taxis, bus lines, charters, tour buses and rail lines, NerdWallet reported.
All other features will remain the same, including the $0 annual fee and the welcome offer: Cardholders earn 30,000 bonus points (a $300 value) when they spend $3,000 within 90 days of account opening, NerdWallet added.
