Last reviewed: March 1, 2018

Golden 1 Credit Union Platinum Rewards credit card

Last reviewed: January 19, 2018
The BB&T Bright Card is a true low-APR card, which is great for someone with excellent credit who carries a balance from month to month.
JetBlue Plus card
Last reviewed: January 30, 2018
The JetBlue Plus card offers a very reasonable APR for an airline rewards card; however, it’s far from the best choice for saving on interest payments, due to its high annual fee and lack of a 0-percent introductory APR for new purchases.
