Collecting rewards points with the Aspire Travel World Elite MasterCard is pretty straightforward: for every $1 you spend, you earn 1 reward mile and $100 works out to 10,000 points.
One significant detail is the fact that cardholders don’t have to deal with the hassle of blackout periods — industry jargon for a period when you can’t redeem points, which typically goes into effect around the holiday season. There’s no cap on the amount of points you can earn and your points never expire.
You can also book travel accommodations yourself. You won’t have to worry about working with a travel agency handpicked by the card provider. Simple.
