Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I was gonna play the points game then I decided it's easier to just churn a sub every now and then and have my Robinhood as a daily driver.
  • Say what you will about Robinhood, but their UIs are generally great. I think their credit card app is the best.
  • If you use Robinhood you can get 3% back on literally everything.
  • I bought a house tho with my ideal setup USBAR+Robinhood (with some sock drawers like prime visa, usbamk cash+ for utilities).

Cons

  • I'd consider BoA more general since Robinhood has additional category restrictions and policing.
  • Parent context: Robinhood don't have the best track record for their investment arm. So I doubt this side venture would be any better. It's not a full bank. The card already have "Use your points to gamble on winning something" kind of t...
  • Parent context: Well that stinks about it not being grocery, but I do have the Sam’s club membership so I might look into that, thanks! (No robinhood here, gives me the heebie-jeebies, probably because of all the bad press) Reply: (No ro...
  • One setup that really intrigues me is using Capital One for our shared credit/HYSA, then using either Robinhood/Fidelity for my own individual credit/HYSA.
  • Parent context: RH CC...3% CB Reply: Tax is an excluded category for Robinhood.

Parent context: Robinhood don't have the best track record for their investment arm. So I doubt this side venture would be any better. It's not a full bank. The card already have "Use your points to gamble on winning something" kind of things. Don't sound like sound place to bank. Reply: If people gambling their rewards away can stabilize the card, I say they can step right up!

Not a fan of their misleading tactics, and I think they should be sued for it.
