The Mastercard® Titanium Card™ is a metal travel card designed for those who want the look of a luxury credit card. There is no welcome offer, and the rewards are lower than average for a card with such a high annual fee. There is no airport lounge access, nor is there any TSA PreCheck or Global Entry credits.
One positive is that if you redeem your points for airfare they’re worth about 2 cents each, with no seating restrictions or black out dates. There are some nice travel benefits as well. We dive into the details and your approval odds in this Mastercard Titanium review.
