| 0:11.2 | Welcome to Card Talk, the show where we help you decide if this credit card |
| 0:16.5 | card belongs in your collection. |
| 0:21.1 | Today's card talk, Wells Fargo, One Key Plus MasterCard. |
| 0:27.2 | Now before we dive into this card, I want to remind people what One Key is. |
| 0:32.8 | So there's a rewards program that's in common between Expedia, Hotels.com, and VRBO. |

| 1:36.5 | oh, well, I went to the landing page and it said 9% at Expedia or whatever, whatever it's saying |
| 1:41.3 | there for the percentages that they advertise, they're including the |
| 1:46.2 | percentage that you'll get, like if you have elite status with one key from Expedio, no matter what |
