What credit card offers the best rewards? I'm thinking of using a credit card to pay my bills then just pay it off at the end of the month. I figure if I'm going to be spending the money anyways, I might as well get something out of it.

Amex blue cash preferred is the best overall IMO unless you want travel rewards

+1 on nerdwallet. Make sure to fill out your average spending on gas, groceries, restaurants and other. Default is $200 in each category.

Anyone have the Visa amazon.com rewards card?

I've actually never applied for a credit card before so I'm not sure if it's one of the better ones or not

i would get the amazon blue and buy amazon gift cards at albertsons.



or citi forward card has 5points for purchases at book stores... which i think includes amazon.

ETA: there are better options than the amazon CC

I got denied for Amex blue a couple years ago

I went with an Amex zync charge card instead, after a year of making payments on time, etc, they sent me a preapproval for the blue cash

May be something to look into

I was fixed on wanting an Amex because I was buying some new electronics and wanted the extended warranty provided by buying something with Amex
