Great for:

A low ongoing APR. The Citi Diamond Preferred not only comes with an exceptionally long introductory period on balance transfers, it also offers a relatively low ongoing APR, especially if you have excellent credit. While you should do your best to pay off your balance in full by the end of the promotional period, this feature helps make it one of our picks for the best balance transfer credit card.

3.4 out of 5

Our take: Thanks to its long introductory offers on balance transfers and purchases, the Citi Diamond Preferred Card is a solid option if you need to pay down debt or finance a large purchase. Just be sure to factor in the card’s high balance transfer fee when weighing options.
