These are super basic redemption values that fit most points, obviously some cards (Chase Sapphires, Citi Premier, US Bank Altitude, etc) come with point redemptions values well above $.01 a point when redeemed in their respective travel portals. But for the most part I would never hang my head about redeeming any type of reward point for at least $.01 a point. Life’s too short. Use ’em or lose ’em!
