Capital One · No annual fee · earns Capital One Miles

Earning rates

Rental Car Coverage — Collision/damage/theft coverage on rentals — up to 15 days in your country of residence, 31 days abroad.
Extended Warranty — Extends eligible manufacturer warranties on purchases made with the card.

Verified accurate — no changes. Fee, earning rates, and coverages re-confirmed against capitalone.com. No sign this card is part of Capital One's network migration; it remains a Visa.

Added capital-one-ventureone (new card, $0 fee — wallet-context card and pooling sibling of the Venture / Venture X), researched from capitalone.com with Upgraded Points and US Credit Card Guide cross-checks (issuer page, UP benefits page, USCCG).
Earning (issuer-confirmed): 1.25x everything (below the 2% baseline at eraser value — the rate notes say so); 5x hotels, vacation rentals & rental cars via Capital One Travel (portal-only, so shown but not auto-counted).
Earns Capital One Miles, pooling with the sibling Venture cards. Values mirror the Venture X (0.5¢ cash / 1.0¢ eraser default / 1.7¢ transfers) — miles transfer natively even on this $0 card.
Coverages: rental coverage (15 days US / 31 abroad; no source states whether it pays primary or secondary, so it's entered as secondary — the conservative reading), extended warranty, no foreign transaction fees (issuer-confirmed).
Network entered as Visa (historically Visa Platinum) — no source states the current tier since Capital One's Discover acquisition, so it's watched for a change.

The card page now tells the network story: entered as Visa, with Capital One's portfolio-wide migration meaning the network depends on issue date. Facts unchanged.
