CardPointers for Credit Cards for Negative User Reviews

✓ Really great functionality but sometimes very slowThis app is FULL of features that make managing credit card bonuses and offers super easy. Highly recommended for anyone with more than 2-3 cards. The only place it fails for me is sometimes the UI will slow down or act weird (like not being able to tap multipliers to edit them until hitting the increment control to the right). I’ve also noticed sometimes data gets saved but doesn’t get reflected across the app, like when setting up a custom category bonuses schedule. If these gets fixed my review would instantly increase to 5 stars. Thanks for all you did on this app, it’s so close to perfect!.Robbie TrenchenyVersion: 3.0.2

✓ UselessNot sure why Apple is promoting this when it’s completely useless in Canada.Brayden97Version: 1.1

✓ American specificTL;DR: 3 stars because it has a really great interface and the app has potential. It’s missing stars because it’s missing support for Australian financal institutions. Details: This app looks like it’s got potential with support for heaps of American cards. Plug in an Australian bank/financial institution however and you’re out of luck. The app DOES have a feedback option to submit cards it doesn’t know about, but I’m not about to submit 4 cards just to better the app for the cards I own today. (And who knows what cards I may have in a years time?!) If you want to know what bonuses you can get if you sign up to an American credit card, this app is for you. If you want to know what benefits Aussie cards can get you, you won’t find them here..TentylinuxVersion: 2.3.7

✓ Great concept, Would be great with more UK banks!I would highly recommend this app, if you could add banks such as Tesco credit, virgin money, Crypto.com.CHAPMAN.BVersion: 4.1.1

✓ TestI downloaded the app. Put in all my cards. Tried to test the app to see what cards it would point to for various uses restaurants, gas stations, grocery, Costco and a few others. It all pointed to one card earning 1% back even though I have cards that offer more at the choices I made. Then after that test it would not let me put it to a real world test by using it for a week or so unless I paid for the pro version. I would love to love this app and even pay for the pro version if after a few weeks of testing. Make the trial longer and maybe it will work for me. I have over 20 cards and it a hassle keeping up with their offers. If it worked I would buy the lifetime version..80s meVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Astounding work done by creator, but not enoughThis is a great idea that is being executed in the best way the creator can. However, without the tools of seamless bank-to-app integration, this is an average 3-star app at best. Unfortunately, MaxRewards is doing a better job at scratching that itch and allows me to easily amass live data and information across all my credit cards from different banks. This app attempts to do the same without actual integration from any banks. I have to manually update my rewards information and spend, etc. It unfortunately feels behind it's time, which is understandable given that the creator probably is more limited in tools than an entire development team. I hope he is able to add bank integration into his app and I will happily support him on his journey. Also the paid version of the app is unfortunately not to my liking and doesn't provide much value to me..Peter_Pan_623Version: 4.6.3

✓ For US not UkThis app is all for US cards so unusable in the UK.Me21me21me21Version: 2.3.7

✓ Total rip-off!This used to be a free app. Now they charge a ridiculous amount for it - SO much so that you will probably never actually save money using the rewards your card gives you. It’s a nice app to compare cards but once you figure out which cards to own you shouldn’t need it anymore. A lot of reviews thank the app for telling them which card to use for which purchase. If you really dont know what the benefits your cards has, to maximize their effectiveness, then either you don’t spend enough on them, or are completely clueless. You shouldn’t need an app to tell you which card is best for a dining purchase! Anyways, what used to be a decent app that would have been fine with monetized ads, is now an overpriced app that’s is not worth it for the money..Pjt3Version: 2.5.1

✓ CanadaUseless for all except American card holders..RujirojVersion: 1.0

✓ Great app for the US, not ready for the UK yetI’m sure this is a superb app in the US, but at the moment I see very minimal support for the UK, with lots of missing UK banks (like Lloyds, Starling, Monese, Metro Bank…), UK cards (like Klarna Card), and UK programmes (like the British Airways Executive Club, along with the Mastercard that comes with it). I had to delete my account in the end, but I really hope to try this app again once it gets better support for the UK..BkabdVersion: 4.1.1

✓ Great idea, needs work on customizationThe idea behind cardpointers is really great. The app is great for tracking where and when to use each of my credit cards. However, customizing cards is buggy and unintuitive. When adjusting the multipliers on each card, it doesn’t update the values you enter until you go all the way back and save. Furthermore, I finished customizing a card only to have it revert to the default or delete every multiplier I had set. There should also be some additional “templates” for each card that do not include travel portal bonuses. Right now it looks like I should use my Chase card for all my travel because the app assumes I will be booking through Chase travel, which is often not the case. Finally activation of offers is only enabled by using the extension on the Amex or Chase offer pages. I’ve already activated my offers, so I’m unable to add the offers I will use. There should be an option to select the offer available and add it to my profile manually. Overall, the idea behind the app is really good. But it needs some work for power users trying to maximize their benefit..SamyahVersion: 4.1.1

✓ Not good for Canada RegionMost of card I needed to add and after that app prompt message as your most of card doesn’t have benefits. UX/UI can be better.Preet patelVersion: 4.6.1

✓ For the American marketApp looks good but has no U.K. cards that I can find; certainly none of the ones I have but has the American versions of those so I think this is solely targeted at the USA..RndmzrVersion: 2.3.7

✓ No Australia supportPotential though..ChoonHunterVersion: 2.4.6

✓ Not for CanadiansUseless if you’re Canadian. Only has US companies. Should be mentioned in the app description..BrandyysnappVersion: 2.3.7

✓ No UK cardsAs per other reviews… (in October 2021).App addict ukVersion: 3.0.5

✓ Subscription is steapI was looking forward to using this app but once again an app that can advertise as “free” but really isn’t. $79.99 a year seems like an awful lot for this app. I could be wrong but I think the avg user would have 4-8 credit cards and I don’t think it’s worth $80 a year to compare the benefits of these cards when there are websites that do it for free. I know the subscription comes with some other benefits but they don’t seem worth the price for me. I REALLY REALLY wish Apple would change their description to “Free Trial”, 100% Free, 100% Free with in app Purchases and Subscription Fee Required..Sonner77Version: 5.1.5

✓ Good idea, poor executionBought a subscription and just dissapointed with the whole user experience. Logging into the app on mac is near impossible, so frustrating - won't accept username and password (clicking the login button does nothing). Pop ups on every site you go to are a pain and just not a nice way to show offers v how Quidco and other similar tools provide the same functionality. All round pretty dissapointed and have cancelled my auto renewal pretty quickly..MickeyDownVersion: 4.6.3
