Being part of a reward credit card program can be a wonderful way to get something back for spending your money, especially if you use your credit card on a regular basis.

Types of Reward Cards

Airline

View Airline Reward Cards

Airline reward credit cards give you free airline miles for certain amounts of money spent.  Usually you are given one or two free miles per dollar spent through your credit card and some give you bonus miles if money is spent during different times of the year and some annually.  Each airline has their own unique reward card to collect free miles.  So be sure you choose your card according to the airline you will most frequently be flying with.  Other things to consider when choosing an airline reward credit card:

• The miles you accrue on some airline cards expire, others never expire.  So depending on how often you fly, you may want to choose one card over another.

• Some airlines have an overall limit on the amount of miles that can be accrued.  If you are flying frequently, you definitely don't want to hit your limit and defeat the purpose of having an airline reward card.

• Bonus air miles can be a big help.  Some cards only offer 2,000 bonus mile at signup, when others offer 5,000 bonus miles annually.
