Really loving these new fintech credit cards like X1 and Bilt!

It was originally a goal to get the Amex Plat but I don't see myself using the airport lounges any time soon so I can't justify it :(

Which card(s) do you like?

Amex Delta Plat

recently got amex blue cash preferred because most of my spending seems to be on groceries, especially during the pandemic.

Chase freedom unlimited seems to be my main card for the last two years.

Bilt seems interesting. I don't see what's so unique about the x1 though.

Spark Cash Plus. 7.7% cash back on everything for the first $50k in spend

Is the 7.7% cash back a one time or ongoing perk?

Which just causes more inflation, by the way.

Beginner here. I'm trying to use my points to buy a flight to Puerto Rico. If Delta costs me 55k points on my Amex (valued at $600 per Points Guy), versus United which costs me 60k points (valued at $700), shouldn't I still just go with the Delta cause I'm spending less points?
