Our Review

Available from $50,000 in personal annual income (or $80,000 per household), the Capital One Quicksilver World Mastercard® offers the same rewards as the World Elite version: 3% on groceries and gas, no annual fee, no foreign transaction fees, and doubled cash back for your entire first year.

With this card, you get:

  • 3% cash back at eligible grocery stores (excluding superstores like Walmart and Costco)2
  • 3% at eligible gas stations and EV charging stations2
  • 1% on all other purchases2
  • No caps, and cash back that never expires while your account is open

First-year offer: Capital One matches, dollar for dollar and with no limit, all the cash back you earn in your first 365 days. That works out to 6% / 6% / 2% in year one1.

The card also includes several insurance coverages:

  • $500,000 Common Carrier Travel Accident Insurance
  • Flight Delay (up to $1,000 per trip), Baggage Delay and Lost Baggage Insurance
  • Car Rental Collision/Loss Damage Insurance (up to 31 days)
  • Purchase Assurance, Extended Warranty and Price Protection Service
