Question What credit card to choose?

My friend wants to get a credit card. But he hesitates what type of credit cards to chose. On the one hand, he is fond of shopping. On the other hand, he travel a lot. Can you give me advice what type of credit card to recommend?

MasterCard is also accepted world wide. Why Visa is better?

I think the major differences between Visa & Mastercard is the benefits you get, APR, features such as balance transfer, & most important is the interest charges.

Also, Annual fees is a major factor in deciding which one to get.

I'm agree with BizWorld. In fact there is no real difference between Visa & Mastercard. Their difference is only in charges and it's depends on the Bank. For example one bank will charge more from Visa cards, the second will charge more from Mastercards.

A true business credit card is a line of credit that is taken in the name of the business, under the business' credit. Activity, whether good or bad, is reflected on your business' credit report through D&B and other financial institutions, and the liability for any debts incurred and bills owed is with the business.However, some companies out there offer "business" credit cards which they require a person guarantee for. These institutions will often ask for a personal guarantee, and will almost always ask for a social security number from the person applying for the card. If this is the case, the credit card is not a business credit card, but is simply a personal credit card which is used for the business. The business is not liable for bills and debts - you are.When applying for a credit card for your business, watch out for areas asking for your SSN (and not your TaxID or EIN) and be wary of any credit card that asks for a personal guarantee. By ensuring that your credit card is in the name of your business, you can help to build your business' credit, while avoiding creating problems with your own.

Many companies offer a list of credit cards that are issued under the business name only. Those lists typically run $300-$900, depending on the quality of the information inquiring. I would suggest starting your search online via google or yahoo. Search for "strong business credit" (just like that in quotes) to find services that sell the information.

Good luck,

I guess you need to factor in as well how your credit report looks. If you have good credit, then you can get a fairly decent credit card from a good bank.
