Amex EveryDay® Credit Card
The Amex EveryDay® Credit Card (Review) is a rare breed because it offers a top-notch balance transfer deal — a long intro period and no transfer fee — along with a solid rewards program (most great balance transfer cards don’t have very good rewards).

No Annual Fee Credit Cards For Long 0% Balance Transfer APR
If you need a card with a long 0% intro APR for purchases, it will be hard to beat the U.S. Bank Visa® Platinum Card.
Rotating Bonus Categories
A typical rotating bonus category earns 5%, while other cards are limited to earning 2% or 3% cash back, says Daniel Gillaspia, travel and rewards expert and founder of the travel rewards blog UponArriving. Category choices are gas, online shopping, dining, travel, drugstores, or home improvement/furnishings.
Food (Restaurants and Groceries)
The Bank of America® Cash Rewards Credit Card (Review) is one of the most flexible cash back cards around, with a 3% bonus category you can change every month. Dining is one of your choices, along with quite a few other useful options, and you’ll always get grocery stores for one of your smaller categories.
No Annual Fee Credit Cards For Bad Credit
Secured cards are designed for people with bad, limited, or no credit, so they usually come with pretty unfavorable terms. But the Discover it Secured is different, and even provides a decent rewards program. Not only that, your cash back is doubled for the first year! That’s even better than some reward credit cards.
No Annual Fee Credit Cards For Travel Rewards
No-annual-fee travel credit cards offer rewards for no yearly cost of card ownership. This can be appealing to frugal or infrequent travelers. Keep in mind, however, that these cards lack the richer rewards and perks of cards that do charge annual fees. For some travelers, paying an annual fee is worth it thanks to those incentives, which can include things like travel credits, bonus rewards, airport lounge access, free checked bags, priority boarding, hotel status and more.
