Fine print
  • Capital One miles: 'Cover your travel purchases' (statement credit against travel charges posted in the last 90 days) and bookings on Capital One Travel redeem at 1 cent per mile (issuer terms: multiply the travel cost by 100 to get miles needed). Cash/statement credit or check not tied to travel is 0.5 cent per mile per TPG; Capital One's own terms only say rates 'vary'.
  • The 5X Capital One Travel rate covers hotels, vacation rentals and rental cars only. Incidentals, upgrades and other charges outside Capital One Travel earn the standard 1.25X.
  • 0% intro APR on purchases and balance transfers for 15 months, then 18.74%, 24.74% or 28.74% variable. Balance transfer fee: 3% on balances transferred in the first 15 months, then 4% on any later promotional-APR transfer, and none at the Purchase APR after that. No minimum dollar fee.
  • Miles can be transferred to Capital One's airline and hotel partners (VentureOne is listed as eligible on Capital One's transfer partner guide). Most partners are 1:1. Emirates, EVA Air and Japan Airlines are 2:1.5, JetBlue is 5:3 and Accor is 2:1.
  • No annual fee and no foreign transaction fee (product page).
  • Since early 2026 some NEW VentureOne accounts are being issued on Capital One's Discover network (PaymentsJournal). Capital One's product data still lists the public offer as Mastercard World Elite.
