The IberiaBank Visa® Gold Cash Back Rewards Card, issued by IberiaBank, is designed for those with good credit who would like to take advantage of the cash rewards program.

Through the rewards program, cardholders earn a 1% cash back credit on all qualifying purchases. There is no limit to the amount of rebates cardholders may earn, and rebates do not expire for the life of the account.

The card has no annual fee and the interest rate for purchases is reasonably low for a rewards card (for those who qualify). Plus, the card offers a low introductory rate on balance transfers submitted during the first three months for the first six months of membership.

In addition to the cash rebate, cardholders have access to common gold benefits, such as up to $500,000 in travel accident insurance, lost and stolen card reporting, and various online account services.

Therefore, those who qualify for the lowest rate offered, do not want to pay an annual fee, and plan to take advantage of the cash rebate program will benefit most from what the IberiaBank Visa® Gold Cash Back Rewards Card has to offer.

Show off your eco-savvy with the Biodegradable Discover® More Card! Issued by Discover, the Biodegradable Discover® More Card is the only credit card that will biodegrade in landfill or compost-like conditions.

This card is as easy on your wallet as it is on the planet. Through the rewards program, cardholders earn a 5% Cashback Bonus® in categories such as travel, gas, restaurants, movies, and more. Cardholders also earn up to 1% for general purchases and up to 1% Cashback Bonus on all other purchases automatically.

As an added bonus, cardholders can earn up to a double Cashback Bonus® when redeeming their rebates for gift certificates from participating Discover® Card Partners. There is no yearly limit on the amount of rebates that can be earned, and rebates do not expire as long as the account is active within a 36-month period.

This card currently has a 0% introductory APR on balance transfers for 6 months, and a 0% introductory APR on purchases for up to 6 months. The APR for this card is reasonable for those who qualify.

Aside from the rewards program, this credit card also provides several platinum benefits, including up to $500,000 in travel accident insurance, auto rental insurance, and various fraud and security protection services. Cardholders will also receive discounts on products and services at participating merchants and retailers.

Those who plan to spend over $3,000 a year (to earn the 1% cash rebate), plan to use their Cashback Bonus® award at participating retailers (to earn double cash rebates), and who plan to pay in full each month after the introductory rate expires (to avoid finance charges) will benefit most from what the Biodegradable Discover® More Card has to offer.

*It is important to note that like many cash reward cards, the highest rebate offered will not apply to all purchases made with the credit card. In this case, 1% will only be applied only to those purchases made after the cardholder spends over $3,000 in one year, so the overall cash rebate earned will be less than 1%, depending on the amount spent. For instance, if the cardholder were to spend $4,000, only $1,000 of this amount would be applied towards the 1% rebate. However, this does not take into account any promotional offers or the full 5% Cashback Bonus® award.

The American DreamCard™ Platinum MasterCard®, issued by HSBC Bank Nevada, N.A., is an ideal credit card for those with very good credit who are looking for an average platinum card with a monthly cash sweepstakes program.

Through the American DreamCard™ Sweepstakes program, one entry is awarded for each dollar spent in purchases, cash advances, and balance transfers. Cardholders also receive 1,000 bonus entries when they apply online. Each month, one winner will be selected for a cash prize of up to .50% of the total amount of net dollars spent by the participating American DreamCard™ cardholders during the corresponding drawing period.

The card also offers a referral program that rewards cardholders with 50 entries for each referral, plus a signing bonus of 1,000 entries for each referral who becomes a cardholder.

The card has a variable interest rate on all transactions. It is important to note that the APRs for all transactions are tied to the highest Prime Rate during a three-month period. Therefore, due to this policy, the lowest possible interest rates may never be reached.

Aside from the sweepstakes program, the card does not offer any common benefits that are associated with most platinum status credit cards.

Therefore, those who qualify for the lowest rate offered and will take advantage of the American DreamCard™ Sweepstakes will benefit most from what the American DreamCard™ Platinum MasterCard® has to offer.
