How this works

Each side’s total is yearly rewards plus credits you’d actually use, minus the yearly card fee. This example uses the same rewards and credits on both sides, so the gap is zero until a fee or an amount changes.

Choosing a card replaces an example fee when CardMath has checked that card recently. A fee you already typed stays. Rewards and credits stay as you set them. Enter 0 for anything you would not use.

The gap is arithmetic under these inputs. Read the method.
