Welcome to Financial Facts Friday! Credit Cards, Part 5-Credit Card Rewards.

Credit card rewards are often offered by credit card companies as an extra incentive for you to use your card regularly. Depending on the type, and how many credit card rewards are offered on a particular card, an annual fee may be associated with using that credit card.

Credit card rewards are accrued in points or miles in a ratio that is typically 1:1. This means that for every one dollar spent on your credit card, or paid back on your credit card bill, you will earn one point or one mile.

Some common credit card reward categories include cash back, travel, airline, hotel, and flexible rewards. Business credit cards often offer very similar perks to personal credit cards, but the reward potential is much higher, since the credit limit is typically much higher as well.

Come back next week to hear about the pros and cons of using a credit card! Happy Friday!
