Three short months ago, Capital One shuttered the application page for the Savor Rewards from Capital One. This $95 annual fee card was an excellent wallet companion, especially if you used it in conjunction with a Capital One miles-earning card and converted your cash back to miles.
We're not quite sure why Capital One decided to remove this card. However, Capital One appears to have a fondness for the name, as it has officially rebranded the no-annual-fee Capital One SavorOne Cash Rewards Credit Card as the Capital One Savor Cash Rewards Credit Card. Similar cosmetic changes now apply lineup-wide.
Here's a simplified breakdown of the musical chairs game going on at Capital One and a look at what this means for current and future cardholders.
Capital One Drops “SavorOne” Branding in Favor of “Savor”
The crux of Capital One's card name shakeup is that the word “Savor” has replaced “SavorOne.” The Capital One SavorOne Cash Rewards Credit Card? It's now called the Capital One Savor Cash Rewards Credit Card. And the Capital One SavorOne Student Cash Rewards Credit Card? Same thing. The name has been shortened to the Capital One Savor Student Cash Rewards Credit Card.
Names aside, nothing else is changing outside of what the cards look like. There's no bump in annual fee, new or exiting benefits, or anything else. These changes are purely cosmetic.
And, no, the legacy $95 annual fee Savor Rewards from Capital One is not making a comeback. However, if you're a current cardholder, you can continue to use your card without interruption.
The same goes for the now-renamed Capital One Savor Cash and Savor Student Card. You can continue to use your card as normal, but when it expires — or you request a replacement — you'll get one in the mail with the updated name and color scheme starting in November 2024.

Capital One Savor Card Welcome Offer
On the less confusing side of things, as a new applicant, you can earn $200 Cash Back after you spend $500 on purchases within 3 months from account opening on the no-annual-fee Capital One Savor Cash.
If you're unfamiliar with the card, it's one to consider — especially if you value Capital One miles. While it delivers rewards as cash back, you can combine your rewards with a miles-earning card such as the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card.
Even if you don't have a miles-earning card — or prefer to just earn cash back — this card is a winner because of its earning rates. Take a look if you don't believe us — and remember you can leverage them without paying an annual fee.

Final Thoughts
Capital One has made some cosmetic changes to its credit card lineup. Effective immediately, cards with “SavorOne” branding have been switched to “Savor.” So, yes, there are technically two cards with the name Capital One Savor Cash Rewards Credit Card, though the $95 annual fee version is closed to new applicants and the no-annual-fee version is offering a great sign-up bonus.
