A good fit if

  • Choose Plus if spending fits the local cap and CRO rewards justify subscription; subscribing avoids a required CRO lockup.

The tradeoff

  • First check the active plan’s reward rate, monthly cap and regional FX costs.
  • Where official sources disagree, confirm the terms in the app before comparing them with the subscription price.
