What is the best credit card rewards program?

Finding the Right Credit Cards Reward Program for You

There's no single best credit card rewards plan that fits the lives of all consumers. Instead, when searching for the best credit card rewards, you must consider your own life--your individual and family shopping patterns, your favorite stores, your favorite travel destinations, and your spending habits.

With so many different choices for rewards, there's no reason why you cannot find a rewards card that actually suits your lifestyle and gives you a reward that you love. To unearth the best deals for you and your family, try the following:

  1. Look for credit card offers at your favorite stores. If you love Starbucks, then finding a reward card that offers free Starbucks coffee as a reward is perfect. Because they're likely to offer rewards that you'll enjoy, always ask your favorite stores if there's a reward card that you can get through them.
  2. Look for credit cards with travel rewards that have few limitations. Otherwise, you may have blackout dates, advance ticketing requirements, and off-limits locales.
  3. Find credit cards with cash back rewards that offer the cash back from purchases made at stores you frequent. If you have to make a special trip to a store out of your way just to earn cash back, chances are you won't maximize your use of the program.
