Top picks for Outback Steakhouse from our scoring engine.
Rankings are generated by our algorithm based on earn rates, point valuations, fees, and benefits — not paid placement. We don't accept compensation to rank cards higher. How we rank
Ranked by earn rate and redemption value, statement credits minus annual fees (weighted against a typical $30,000/year in total card spend), shopping portal bonuses when we recognize the merchant, matched benefits and promotional earn boosts, co-brand fit for this brand. The ¢ per dollar column is the reward rate at Outback Steakhouse, after spend caps. Order can differ from that column because ranking adds the adjustments above.
Bilt Obsidian Card earns the top spot for Outback Steakhouse purchases at 6.6¢ per dollar on dining — a $95 annual fee. We ranked every card in our database against Outback Steakhouse purchases using the same scoring engine that powers our search. See the note above the list for what drives order versus the ¢ per dollar column. Cards 4–10 are still solid picks; they just trade off some headline earn rate for fewer fees, broader networks, or simpler redemptions.
