I’m on the hunt for credit cards that offer great rewards specifically for golf enthusiasts. I’ve heard there are some out there that provide points for golfing expenses like greens fees, equipment purchases, and even exclusive access to golf events or courses.

What I’m Looking For:

  • Rewards Points: Which cards offer the most points for golfing-related spending?
  • Exclusive Access: Are there any cards that give access to special golf experiences or tournaments?
  • Bonus Offers: Do any cards have great sign-up bonuses for golfers?

If anyone has personal experiences or recommendations for golf credit cards that have worked well for them, I’d really appreciate the insights. Thanks in advance!

I highly recommend the PGA TOUR Credit Card. It offers 5% cash back on golfing expenses and great rewards on related purchases. Helps me save a lot every year!

That sounds great! Does it also include any discounts for green fees? That would be a big plus for me.

Yes, it does! You can get discounts on green fees at select courses. I’ve saved quite a bit at my local club because of it.

I’ve had the Chase Sapphire Preferred for a while now. While it’s not exclusively a golf card, it has good points on dining which comes in handy during golf trips!

That’s awesome to hear! Do any other cards provide access to exclusive golf events?

The Mastercard Golf Rewards Card gives you access to exclusive golf tournaments and events! Plus, it offers 4% on golfing purchases which is nice.

Sounds interesting! Is it easy to earn those rewards points, or do you have to spend a lot?

9

Earning points is pretty straightforward. You just need to make regular golf-related purchases. I found it easy to rack up rewards.

Also, don’t forget about the Citi ThankYou Card. You can redeem points for golf equipment and other related stuff. That has been a game changer for me.

That’s definitely a good option! Do you know if it has any fees or is it annual-fee free?

It does have an annual fee, but many feel it’s worth it for the benefits you get. You can often find offers that waive the fee for the first year!

Great to know! I am wondering how the rewards stack up during tournaments?

They can be quite good! Many cards offer bonuses for large purchases during tournaments – I got double points for my last golf trip.

15

That sounds ideal! What card do you use for that?

16

I primarily use the American Express Golf Club Card. The rewards for tournament spending are unbeatable, plus access to their VIP events is a nice touch.

17

I’m also on the hunt for solid golf credit cards. Annual fees can be a dealbreaker! Has anyone found a card that maximizes rewards without hefty fees?

18

Absolutely! It’s crucial to weigh those fees against the benefits. Some cards offer great rewards, but the fees can eat into those perks quickly.

19

Have you considered the XYZ Golf Rewards Card? It has a reasonable annual fee and gives you 3% back on golf purchases. I’ve managed to offset the fee with my rewards!

That sounds intriguing! How are the interest rates on that card though? I’d like to avoid high interest if possible.
