Capital One Savor: Applications closed
As of July 16, Capital One is no longer accepting new applications for its Savor Cash Rewards credit card. Existing cardholders can continue as usual, enjoying the same perks and earnings rates at the same $95 annual fee.

If you were considering applying for the Savor card, the good news is that its no-annual-fee sibling, the Capital One SavorOne Cash Rewards Credit Card (see rates and fees), has solid earning rates in the same bonus categories as the Savor and is still open to new applicants.

Capital One Walmart card: Discontinued
Meanwhile, both of Capital One's Walmart card offerings — the Capital One Walmart Rewards Mastercard, as well as the "closed-loop" Walmart Rewards Card that was usable only with the retailer — have been discontinued. The ending of Capital One's partnership with Walmart was announced in May, but this is the first we've heard regarding the fate of these two cards.

Existing cardholders of both cards will be transitioned to the Capital One Quicksilver Cash Rewards Credit Card — even if they already have that card. According to Capital One's website, eligible cardholders will receive their new card on a rolling basis starting in September and continuing throughout early 2025. Walmart cardholders will be able to continue using their Walmart credit cards until further notice.
The issuer says customers will retain any rewards they've earned with the Walmart card. Points will transfer to the Quicksilver cards at a value of one cent per point.
If you've got either of these Walmart cards, you can check out what you're getting with your forthcoming Quicksilver card here.

Changes like this aren't unusual in the world of credit cards, especially when a partnership like Capital One and Walmart comes to an end. Still, if you're affected by either of these changes, you'll want to evaluate your card and decide if it still makes sense for your wallet.
