BEST FOR CASH REBATES
American Express Blue Cash
Earn a hefty 5% rebate on gas, groceries and drugstore purchases, plus 1.5% on everything else, once you reach a $6,500 spending threshold with this card. Until then, you receive 1% on those everyday purchases and 0.5% on whatever else you buy. You could save $580 on annual charges of $22,630.
BEST GAS CARD
BP Visa
This card from Chase will lower your annual bill by about $490 if you spend $2,900 on BP gas and $19,700 on everything else. For the first 60 days, you receive a 10% BP rebate; 4% on airfare, dining, lodging and car rentals; and 2% on everything else; after that, the rebate is cut in half.
BEST TRAVEL REWARDS
Simmons First Visa Platinum Travel Rewards
Earn one point per dollar spent with this no-fee card and use the rewards for free plane tickets, hotel stays, restaurant meals or car rentals. You need only 22,000 points for a coach ticket, worth up to $325, to any destination within the 48 contiguous states.
BEST LOW RATES
Wells Fargo Prime Rate
Cardholders who carry a monthly balance will appreciate this card for its 5% interest rate and $19 annual fee. The rate will never exceed prime, the rate at which banks lend to their best customers. Free alerts remind you when your bill is due and notify you if you're approaching your credit limit.
