The Southwest Rapid Rewards® Plus Credit Card is the lowest card in the rank of available Southwest co-branded credit cards. It's a watered down version of the Premier Card that earns a smaller amount of bonus points and does not have the ability to earn Tier Qualifying Points. It's great for anyone that fly Southwest occasionally and still want to build a few Rapid Rewards Points and enjoy the perk of two free checked bags. It's definitely still a very useful card that has just as much potential as the Southwest Premier Card.

Rewards Calculator
You can use the rewards calculator to calculate how many points, miles, or cash back you can earn based on your spend per category. This calculator will also give you the dollar value of the card based on the value of the rewards earned and how much each benefit is worth to you, minus the annual fees. You can click the Compare A Card button to compare this card side by side any other card featured on the site within the same calculator.
Note! All category spend entered in the primary card's column (first column when comparing cards) will carry over to all credit card calculators on the site. This means you will not have to re-enter the same information again and again when browsing during the session.
