		<description><![CDATA[One good feature of many credit cards these days is the so-called balance transfer option. This feature allows transferring of an existing balance from one credit card to another. This service has become quite invaluable for many people, particularly for those who have two cards, one carrying high interest rates while the other one having lower interest rates.
Making use of the balance transfer feature should be done with extreme caution though. This is because this particular service has one or two sub-features that may not always work in your favor. For example, there is this so-called allowable transfer amount which is the amount of balance that your card company allows you to transfer to other cards.
Many cardholders have found this ...

		<description><![CDATA[A secured credit card they say is the answer for those who have no credit history at all or for those whose credit rating is not too great. A secured credit card is provided for those who can afford to put in a cash collateral deposit that will serve as the credit line. Some banks even offer a percentage atop that amount as a limit. You as the card holder may charge up to the amount of your collateral deposit and you may also have an option to increase credit line. The collateral deposit may vary among banks – usually between $300 and $500 in deposits. There are times when you are awarded with additional credit line without depositing more ...

Sometimes known as air mile cards, a travel credit card is actually part of an extensive promotional scheme involving credit cards. Just like the mechanics of most promotions, these cards can only be used after earning the required points.

		<description><![CDATA[Years ago, when I needed to finish my thesis for my degree, I had to find an interviewee that will give light to some business tricks. Fortunately, my dad’s friend has his own company that does well to this day so I did not have a hard time finding a subject. One of the lessons he learned during his start-up days was to apply and use business credit cards the sensible way. These cards are actually great tools for the business but also must be used responsibly just like personal cards.
Business credit cards help build your company’s own credit history, your company being a separate entity. A good credit rating puts your reputation in a good light for your creditors ...

		<description><![CDATA[Having married really early, my cousin is guilty of not learning the ropes around finances. She used to let her husband decide on financial matters, including scheduling of payments and which investments to make, among others. Now that they are freshly divorced, she knew that she will have to learn these things so she could start building good credit for herself. Now, she realizes that even if she was just a stay-at-home wife, she should have considered understanding how credit works. When she started reading about this a couple of weeks ago, she found out that she is not alone in the situation and that a lot of women suffer from the same dilemma.
