Chase Credit Cards
2 min read
There’s a wide variety of Chase credit cards, mostly designed for people with great credit history and credit scores.
Chase also offers several business credit cards for small business owners under the Chase Ink Business brand.
For Travel Rewards
These cards do not have foreign transaction fees, which should be expected on travel credit cards with an annual fee. They’re part of the Chase Ultimate Rewards program. Ultimate Rewards points are most valuable when you redeem for travel purchases through the Ultimate Rewards portal or a point transfer to a partner travel program, like a hotel loyalty program.
Each card has an opportunity to earn bonus points for spending a certain amount within the first few months of account opening. These credit cards even offer primary car rental insurance, a valuable perk that could help keep your insurance payments low.
Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card

For Cash Back Rewards
Chase offers two rewards credit cards that earn cash back with no annual fee. Each of these Chase cards also comes with an intro APR for the first year, which can be used for balance transfers or to pay off purchases over time. After that you’ll get a regular variable APR.
