What the numbers are doing

The table is earn rate only — annual fees are not netted out of it. These cards charge Amazon Visa $0 and Marriott Bonvoy Bountiful $250 a year, so a thin lead in one category may not cover the difference.

Where they differ: Marriott Bonvoy Bountiful takes everything else, dining and groceries; Amazon Visa takes gas, amazon, public transit and rideshare & taxis.
