The Rocket Visa Signature® Card is a cash back card designed for those who are shopping for a new home and ideally want to use Rocket Mortgage for financing. In addition to the welcome offer, cardholders get 5% cash back on every purchase. Rewards vary in how much they’re worth depending on how you redeem them. If you use your rewards for Rocket Mortgage closing costs or a down payment, they are worth 5% cash back (up to $8,000). If you use your rewards to pay down an existing mortgage with Rocket Mortgage, they’re worth 2% cash back, and if you redeem rewards for a statement credit, they’re worth a dismal 1.25%.
If you do use the points on your existing mortgage, they will reduce the amount you owe, but you can’t reduce your mortgage payment. Instead, you’ll just pay off the loan a little faster. We dive into the details and your approval odds in this Rocket Card review.
