Here are some of the features and benefits of a prepaid card.

Reputed retail chains waive off fee

Looking for an amazing cash back credit card?

Look no further…the Chase Sapphire Preferred currently offers a whopping 50,000 bonus points when you spend just $3,000 during the first three months from account opening.

For many of us who use our credit cards frequently, this is a pretty simple path to $500 in cash back, as 50,000 points are redeemable for $500 in cash.

If cash isn’t your thing (hmm…), you can also use the 50,000 bonus points to redeem $625 toward airfare.

And with no foreign transaction fee, you could save some serious cash using your credit card abroad.

There is a $95 annual fee, but it’s waived for the first year, making this one of the best cash back credit card offers out there at the moment.

This credit card also earns a 7% annual points dividend, and 2x points on airfare and hotel accommodations booked through Ultimate Rewards.

You also get 1 point on all other purchases, so the cash back can add up quick.

Both the balance transfer and purchase credit card APR are a variable 13.24%, so it’s not the best credit card to carry a balance.

It’s geared for those who pay off their balances each month and want to get the most out of their credit card rewards.

If it interests you, apply here.

Assuming the annual fee is deal-breaker, you can opt for the Chase Sapphire card, which comes with 25,000 bonus points worth $250 in cash back, and no annual fee!

Now that Discover has ended its no fee balance transfer promotion, you may be wondering if there are any other alternatives out there.

In short, the answer is an unfortunate “no.”

That’s right; no other credit card issuers are brave enough to offer a no fee balance transfer credit card at the moment, perhaps still spooked from the credit crisis that appears to be nearing its end.

Even pre-credit crisis, I don’t think Chase offered a no fee balance transfer; only Citi seemed to take that plunge.

So why is this post titled, “Chase No Fee Balance Transfer?”

Well, you may have noticed the “?” in the title. It’s there beca
