As veterinary costs continue to climb, a new consumer credit card is offering unique cardholder benefits designed with pet owners in mind.

Nibbles, an organization that offers “innovative health care options that help pet parents and their pets enjoy a longer life together,” has launched the Nibbles Rewards Credit Card.

The card promises to help pet owners manage pet expenses and take advantage of unique perks not provided by most other credit cards, including:

  • Up to $10,000 in annual pet health insurance coverage
  • 3x points on all pet-related expenses
  • Over $500 in annual savings on pet care

The card even allows pet owners to submit insurance claims through the company’s dashboard.
