I have great credit. I don't want to pay an annual fee, and want the best cash back policy.

For an excellent credit card that offers cash back with little or no annual fee, there are several options to consider. The Blue Cash Preferred® Card from American Express is a great option that offers different levels of cash back on different categories of purchases, and the Capital One® Quicksilver® Cash Rewards Credit Card offers extremely competitive rewards rates across the board!

There are many excellent rewards credit cards for you to consider! If you are looking for a card that is excellent across the board allowing you to earn rewards on purchases, the Capital One® Venture® Rewards Credit Card is an excellent option. If you want to focus your rewards on Delta, take a look at the Blue Delta SkyMiles® Credit Card from American Express!

Hi There, I am needing to open a new card for a $5,000 home repair. Looking for the longest introductory time period (preferably 6 months before first payment). And would like the highest in cash back rewards (not just travel, can be used for anything). What would you recommend for someone with excellent credit? Thanks!!

Many cards offer excellent introductory APR periods on purchases as well as rewards offers! The Discover it® Cash Back as well as the Chase Freedom Unlimited® both offer extra long introductory periods as well as excellent rewards programs!

By: Dayna Williams | May 14, 2018

Hi there, I am simply interested in finding a credit card that will give me the best rewards. I don’t typically use a credit card but am planning to start using it for my monthly spending and just want to reap the benefits of spending the money I would be spending regardless (around $1000/month). Ideally the rewards would come in the form of cash rewards although if there is a better travel reward option I might consider it as well. Thank you and I look forward to hearing back!

There are many rewards options, take a look at the Blue Cash Everyday® Card from American Express and the Bank of America® Cash Rewards credit card - $200 Cash Rewards Offer both of which offer good cash back rewards!

By: Kathy Maddux | Mar 23, 2018

Any cards better than others for using for services such as medical services, surgeries, etc, with no annual fees, 0 interest to start, and low interest after the intro period?

By: CompareCards | May 25, 2018

Many credit cards offer no APR for introductory periods as well as no annual fees. Two cards to look at would be the Citi Simplicity® Card - No Late Fees Ever and the Chase Freedom Unlimited® as the both offer extra long introduction periods for APR.

By: Robby Taylor | Feb 18, 2018

The Quicksilver, Double Cash, Cash Wise, and Freedom Unlimited all serve the same purpose: spending for general purchases where you don't get higher rewards on a more specific card. I have a few 5% cash back cards, but they all only offer 5% on specific categories. I use my Freedom Unlimited for purchases that don't fall into these or similar rewards categories because I can redeem my rewards with the Freedom Unlimited as Ultimate Reward points through my Sapphire Preferred. To me, the 1.5 UR points are worth more than the 2% cash back of the Citi Double Cash.

I have heard it's not good to close a credit card. Yes or no?

1 Reply

By: CompareCards | Nov 8, 2017

While it is true that closing a credit card may have a negative impact on your credit score, there are a number of factors to consider and the impact will vary depending on your situation. It's a good idea to keep your oldest credit card open even if you no longer use it because the age of your accounts is one factor that goes into your credit score. Also, closing a credit card with a large credit line is more likely to cause your credit score to drop because it may increase your overall credit utilization rate. On the flip side, closing a fairly new credit card with a small credit line may not have any long term impact on your credit score if you have older credit cards open with large lines of credit.

Have a basic question - most of these cards have minimum spending limits to get the sign up bonus. Does paying rent qualify as a purchase or does it have to be actual purchases ?

If you're landlord allows you to pay your rent with a credit card, then it will most likely count as a "purchase" on your statement!

Considering the United Mileage Plus Explorer card or the Chase Sapphire Preferred card. Concerned about being tied to United (we live near Chicago so frequently, but not exclusively fly United). Is the flexibility of the Sapphire card outweigh the specifics for United (free bags etc..)?
