Comparing Numerous Cards

If you don’t want too much legwork to identify a good credit card, you can simply visit the Federal Reserve System’s site at www.federalreserve.gov.

Every six months, the Fed surveys the terms of a host of credit card plans, then publishes a report of the findings, which are available on-line.

While this is a reputable report, you still will want to contact the credit card issuers directly to confirm that all the information is current and to learn about other credit card plans available.
