Which are the best credit card providers in the UK and how can I choose the right card for me?

A PoundWise Team Answered by

There is no single best credit card provider for everyone: the right choice depends on your credit history, spending habits and whether you want to repay in full, transfer a balance or spread costs. Compare the representative APR, fees, introductory offers, eligibility criteria, rewards and customer service, rather than choosing on the provider’s name alone. Use an eligibility checker where available to see your chances without making a full application, and check that the provider is FCA-authorised. Always read the terms carefully and only borrow what you can afford to repay.
