I own a credit card which initially offered me a very low interest rate. Now than card companies raise APRs even on good credit cards, mine has gone almost twice as high. There is small business in my name that I finance with this card. Looking now for a lower rate. Any ideas?
Answer:

We suggest you move your high interest debt onto a lower APR credit card and start paying it off at a lower cost. You can do this through a balance transfer credit card which you can find on our website. Based on the priorities you can choose from either business credit cards with low intro rate on balance transfers or 0% intro APR balance transfer cards for consumers.

0% intro APR on balance transfers allows clearing balances without any interest charged for 6, 12 or 15 months. Low intro APRs on balance transfers help save on debt repayment with small monthly interest charges applied to the balance. So, it's up to you to decide which is best for your business. Carefully study the card's terms and conditions before you apply. Remember that a single payment missing will lead to a sky-high default APR. Choose the best card for your spending type and paying resources and apply online.

My credit score is high. I think I can benefit from cc rewards, as I've heard of them. Which bank offers most generous rewards for me as a frequent gas buyer? Appreciate your time.
Answer:

As you know, gas prices are on the rise and your good credit rating is a sure tool to save. Gas credit cards are acquiring more and more popularity as they allow drivers collect big rebates on eligible purchases at most gas stations. If you are looking for really great saving opportunities at gas stations, as well as the convenience of a credit card, then Chase bank is the place to go. Some of the best gas rebates earning opportunities are available with Chase bank's PerfectCard MasterCard, a good credit plastic with 0 % intro APR and no annual fee above all. No matter which gas station you pump up at, each of your purchase will turn into a profit of 6% or 3% of the price. Chase bank has traditionally offered some of the most attractive reward plans for good/excellent credit applicants. Some of them are featured on our website, so you can compare their key points and choose the one card that appeals to you most.

Please, help. I have no chance for a good rate, no fee credit card. My credit is average, but I know I can upgrade it. What's your suggestion?

Some of the best fair credit offers carry rewards programs, such as cash back and gasoline rewards, as well as great saving opportunities. Apply for a fair credit card online and enjoy improving your credit history.

In search of my first cc I saw such a point Intro APR which varies from 0% to some small percentage. What does it mean and why do some cards offer it and some don't?
Answer:

Generally, the abbreviation APR stands for Annual Percentage Rate, the rate that determines how much your deal will cost you annually. A credit card may have different APRs – on purchases, balance transfers and cash advances. A good or excellent credit card may offer you the benefit of a 0% intro APR which means you will pay no interest on purchases or balance transfers for a certain period of time, called intro or teaser period. However, as a rule there is no teaser APR on cash advances. 0% or low intro APR allows a cardholder to save on interest to be paid back to the bank. It means, if your card’s APR is zero, you will pay to the creditor the amount of the purchase, no more. This benefit applies only if you pay your credit card bills on time and do not exceed your credit limit. If you are late, the intro APR will be eliminated and a default rate will be imposed. 0% Intro APR credit card offers are basically for good or excellent credit customers, so if you’re just starting your credit file, you may face certain difficulties in getting approved. Good luck.

How do you suggest I maximize the profitability of an airlines rewards card? I'm currently looking for one as I heard it offers great saving opportunities, as well as various redemption options. Thanks for your time.
Answer:

Yes, you are quite right. Airlines credit cards may turn really very beneficial in terms of rewards. However, you mean to get the most of an air miles credit card, you need to consider the following. There are two types of such rewards card offers: airline sponsored credit cards and bank sponsored ones. The right application decision depends on, particularly, where you’re gong to use your plastic. If you’re used to flying with the same airline, it’s best to get an airline-sponsored card with very extensive benefits like a seat upgrade and others. Each purchase made on this very airline brings you up to two miles per dollar, and this is a great deal, isn’t it? Then, you want to change airlines but still mean to earn air miles points, your variant is a bank-sponsored card. Such air miles card gives you more flexibility and allows you to accumulate points with different airlines – all on one card. No matter which one you choose, remember about blackout dates, points restrictions, rates and fees. Consider them all before applying for an air miles rewards card, as it will let you make the most of it.

I'm now looking for a good apr cc, my score 635. I get denial with every issuer I apply at, mostly with Discover, American Express and Chase. What's wrong?
Answer:

According to your credit score number, your credit is fair. As Discover, American Express and Chase Bank are issuers catering for good and excellent credit customers, it is no wonder that they denied your application. The thing is, your fair credit indicates you as a bad credit risk for the card company, so the company won’t give you a low APR good credit card. However, this is not a reason to be frustrated. There are a great number of fair credit card offers that would offer you a reasonable APR and no annual fee. Some of the best Capital One cards on our website offer 0% intro APR on purchases and point rewards programs. In fact, fair credit cards are not that much different from good cards. So, is it worth while trying to get a low APR good plastic and getting constantly denied when you can do perfectly well with a fair credit card?

Of course, having no credit score you may face some difficulties while looking for a credit card.

please a credit card with no bt fees!
Answer:

Actually, there are not so many credit cards which do not charge balance transfer fees, so it may be quite difficult to find any of them. Nevertheless, at our site there is a credit card with $0 balance transfer fee. This is IN:NYC Card and it is offered by American Express. This credit card also offers 0% introductory rate both on balance transfers and purchases for six months. This one charges neither balance transfer fee nor annual fee. Moreover, this is a rewards credit card which allows earning and redeeming points for food, drinks, and entertainment. You should remember though that the features and terms tend to change over time (the bank is eligible to do this without our consent). Please keep in mind that this credit card is available only to the customers with good or excellent credit (660-749 and 750-850 of FICO score respectively). So, if your own credit score is in this range, you are free to apply for IN:NYC Card or compare balance transfer credit cards collected at the site.
