Worked out with all your other settings unchanged. Staking or lockups a tier needs are not counted as a cost; their value today is shown next to them. Compare these side by side: perks, caps and how to qualify
Missing figures are counted as zero and flagged in the notes. Spending caps, spend bands and small-purchase limits are applied where the issuer publishes them. Top-up fees are worked out on everything you load, including the money that goes on fees. How the calculator works. To see one purchase line by line, try the swipe receipt.
