Capital One Venture Cardholders Might Be Getting a New $100 Hotel Credit

Some Capital One Venture Rewards cardholders are receiving notices this week about a new annual perk: a $100 credit toward hotel and vacation rental bookings made through Capital One Travel.

Good news, your Venture card now includes an annual $100 stays credit for hotel and vacation rental bookings through Capital One Travel. Your credit will be renewed each year on your cardholder anniversary date with no enrollment needed. It will be ready within 72 hours of this message and can be viewed and applied at checkout.

According to the notices, the credit renews each year automatically on your cardholder anniversary — no enrollment required — and becomes available within 72 hours of the notification.

Capital One hasn't made a public announcement, and this doesn't appear to be live for cardholders yet. We'll publish a follow-up story when and if the benefit launches for all cardholders.

Andrew's Take

If this benefit rolls out as described, it's a solid add — a $100 credit against a $95 fee is close to a free card for anyone who travels even occasionally. That said, I'd wait for Capital One to confirm this broadly before getting too excited.
