Best Credit Cards with Signup Bonus Offers

Credit card signup bonuses are incentives card issuers use to persuade consumers to not only sign up for a new credit card, but to also start using the card right away. As long as you plan on paying off your balances in full each month, credit cards with signup bonus offers are a great way to quickly accrue miles, cash back or points.

The best credit card signup bonuses are the ones that are easily obtainable. "Easily" is a relative word depending on your budget, but some cards offer bonus miles or points simply for making one purchase or balance transfer. Seriously - one!

Think Twice Before Paying Taxes with Your Credit Card

Tax time is upon us yet again, which means many of you will be scrambling over the next few weeks to get your tax returns done and cut a check to old Uncle Sam.

However, in recent years the IRS has made it fairly easy to ditch the checkbook and pay your tax bill via credit card.  In many cases you may even be able to deduct the convenience fee card companies charge to process electronic tax payments.  So why should you think twice before paying your tax bill with plastic and racking up extra credit card points or miles?

Credit One Bank® Unsecured Visa® for Rebuilding Credit Review: The Pros & Cons

March 29th, 2016 by Elisabeth Chan

Ever since Orchard Bank credit cards got the axe from Capital One years ago, many consumers with poor credit have been looking to the Credit One Bank® Unsecured Visa® for Rebuilding Credit instead. Let's face it, there unfortunately aren't many credit card options left on the market for those with poor credit. And if you prefer to use an unsecured credit card over a secured credit card, your options are even more limited!

Infographic: How to Make a 0% Interest Credit Card Balance Transfer

March 22nd, 2016 by Joshua Heckathorn

Credit card debt that just keeps on growing is often a product of the high interest consumers are stuck paying on existing balances. Wouldn't it be great if you could just rid yourself of the additional 10, 20 or 25% in interest and start paying down your debt directly?

(The answer is: 'Obviously')

Leaving Monthly Balances Won't Boost Credit Scores

You've probably had friends tell you how they established their credit history faster by leaving monthly balances on credit cards instead of paying balances in full. I hope you didn't fall for this one!

The truth is this happens to be one of the most common credit myths out there, so make sure you talk some sense into your friends the next time you hear it, OK? A consumer who carries a revolving credit card balance each month simply will not establish credit any faster than someone who pays the balance in full.
