Best Credit Cards With No Foreign Transaction Fees

Credit cards with no foreign transaction fees are the only kinds of cards Americans should consider taking abroad.

Why? Because while most cards charge a transaction fee of 3 percent per dollar spent abroad, credit cards with no foreign transaction fees eliminate these costs completely. Use your credit card abroad to pay for anything; try the local food, swipe for tickets on the train, whatever you need to do to make your trip abroad memorable (and inexpensive).

New Discover it for Students Offer: $20 Cashback Bonus

May 6th, 2013 by Jason Bushey

Update: This credit card has changed since this article was published. You can check out the most up-to-date details on this card here: Discover it® for Students with $20 Cashback Bonus.

You know what never hurts when you're in college? A free $20 bill. $20 in my pocket could last me almost a full week in college, until the inevitable Friday night beer run, of course. Free money is always good, but it's especially useful in college when being broke is more or less the norm'. 

Don't bail on your credit card after the bonus

I've heard from a number of different consumers that they don't like to stick with a credit card for long once they receive the initial sign-up bonus offered by their card. Be it cash back or miles, a lot of consumers don't recognize the perks in hanging on to a card once the bonus has been met. 

I'm here to tell you that's flawed thinking, and that you're best off choosing a card you can stick with over the long-haul as opposed to a brief (and albeit fruitful) fling.
