Our Verdict
Seems kind of pointless, but maybe some readers will find value in this freebie.
Useless. Give VX the Uber benefit
Signed up and it seems to be mostly a dud (they only have travel guides for 8 locations…..
Also you have to email to cancel and can’t turn off automatic renewal without contacting them so beware.
cap1 can create a virtual card with auto-lock feature for you
helps for shitty subscriptions
Incorrect. According to TPG, the value of this benefit is priceless.
So far, PRIOR only seems to have guides for about 7 locations. That’s still better than a free meditation app.
One upside is that it’s 100% free, forever, as long as you hold the VX card. It isn’t a small percentage like Gravity Haus, or a 6-month freebie like The Cultivist.
But yeah, not much of a benefit overall. Sounds similar to the old Chase AFAR Guides or old AMEX Travel Leaders.
Should probably say it “costs $149 per year”
Saying it’s “valued at $149 per year” is giving it too much credit…
Fair, updated.
Cap1, gimme your posterior instead of prior. I’ll treat it nicely and will be gentle.
NASA needs to gently launch your posterior into a black hole.
