The surprising truth about credit cards + the card I signed up for personally

Do you want to know the truth about credit cards?

If you can’t pay off your interest-bearing balance each month, it’s probably best to avoid credit cards if you’re able to. High-interest debt can really add up.

But if you can pay off your credit card each month, it’s practically a no-brainer to use them instead of debit cards or cash as they offer much better fraud protection, are a primary way you can raise your credit score with good credit behaviors, and you can easily earn hundreds or thousands of dollars in rewards each year with a top credit card

But with so many cards out there, it’s tough to know where to begin. That’s where The Ascent – a sister company of The Motley Fool – comes in. As The Ascent’s credit card expert, I’ve reviewed and crunched the numbers on hundreds of credit cards over the years. 

One credit card I reviewed was so good that I signed up personally.

That’s because the credit cards I’ve evaluated typically may have one or two of the valuable features below. This card sports all of these:

  • Earn up to 5% cash back.
  • Pay no interest on purchases until mid-2022
  • Lock in $1,148 (or more) in value in your first year by following the steps outlined in the review
  • $0 annual fee

Best part is, there is an incredibly easy way to significantly increase your cash rewards in the first year that we cover in the review.
