The Frontier Airlines World Mastercard is the ultra-low-cost carrier's loyalty play: $99 a year, 5X miles on Frontier purchases (up to 15X once you stack Frontier Miles elite earning), 3X at restaurants, and 1X everywhere else. The real draw isn't the miles - it's the perks that blunt Frontier's a-la-carte fees: two free checked bags, priority boarding, and a $100 flight voucher every year you spend at least $2,500. New cardholders unlock Instant Elite Gold for making a single purchase (keep it a full year by spending $3,000 in the first 90 days), and every dollar you charge earns an Elite Status Point toward Platinum, where free companion travel kicks in. Miles never expire while the card is open, and there are no foreign transaction fees. Worth it if you fly Frontier enough to use the bags and the voucher; skippable if you don't.
