Working for The Points Guy, we are often asked, “What’s the best credit card?” or “What card should I get?” We’re experts, and can help pretty much anyone get to the right card. Usually, I start by telling people to use one of TPG’s best resources: the CardMatch tool.
This handy tool helps you build your rewards strategy by matching you with cards you might qualify for (with no impact to your credit*) — and potentially with bigger, better welcome bonuses than you’ll find elsewhere.
Right now, you can use the tool to find the perfect card for your points and miles journey, and potentially win a huge stash of points to help you maximize the way you travel.
For a limited time, you can enter to win 500,000 Virgin Atlantic Flying Club points, worth $7,000 according to TPG’s March 2025 valuations, when you try out CardMatch. You are automatically entered to win once CardMatch shows you results.
Using the CardMatch tool is easy: Simply answer a few questions about how you travel and which cards you already have, and you’ll receive personalized results and new rewards cards to consider. The robust tool will also show the rewards and benefits those cards offer and the value of the card beyond the sign-up bonus. Best of all, it can help match you with higher sign-up bonuses than you might find publicly.
We’re good at helping people find the right card — and we’re just as good at helping people maximize their points and miles. So, what can you do with 500,000 Virgin Atlantic Flying Club points if you win?
Well, you can snag economy flights between the U.S. and the U.K. starting at 6,000 Virgin points, as I did in January for a long weekend in London. Or, you can go bigger and book Virgin’s Upper Class seats to enjoy a lie-flat seat, premium food and drinks, and that incredible front-of-the-plane feeling from as little as 29,000 Virgin points. (Just don’t forget, even with points you have to pay taxes and fees.)
*If your credit has been locked to prevent fraud, you will need to temporarily unlock it for the CardMatch tool to run a soft credit check and provide you with offers.
