I was just wondering what were the most popular credit card rewards. Is it travel? Gas? Cash bakcs? Seems like a lot of freinds of mine take advantage of the offers with air miles. I also think that cash back cards for gas must be popular.

According to our web site reserches based on you votes, Cash back rewards are perhaps the best kind of reward you can receive.
A credit card that offers cash back usually rewards cash as a percentage of purchases made using the credit card.
For example, you might receive 1% cash reward for each $1 you charge. Cash can also be rewarded in specific increments once you charge a certain amount of money, like a $25 reward when you charge $2,500.

Cash back credit cards, in general, are the most popular credit cards. They also include gas cash back credit cards and credit cards with reward programs that allow cardmembers to trade their points for checks and gift cards (as good as cash).

Hi guys,
I thnk there is no reason to debate about what reward is the best! Everyone choose one that fits his own interests.
Only responsible credit card users should have rewards credit cards. These cards typically have higher interest rates than nonrewards cards, so they make sense only if you can pay your balances off each month. Otherwise, those interest payments will negate the rewards.
Defaulting will also zap your earnings, so you have to keep your account in good standing.
