Shoppers are Saving by Spending With Cashback Credit Cards

LONDON, March 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Shoppers are making their money go further by getting cashback for their credit card purchases, according to comparethemarket.com, one of the UK's leading comparison websites. The company has found that increasing numbers of consumers are visiting their website in a bid to find the best credit cards which offer rewards for shopping.

Those who pay off their monthly credit card balance have found it particularly useful to get a card which offers rewards. Since they pay their full credit card amount each time, these spenders have found interest rates less of a factor when choosing the right card. Cashback credit cards can be an attractive option, offering a reward for purchases.

Simon McCulloch, Director of Money at comparethemarket.com said: "There is a range of different cashback and rewards cards available on the market, with each offering their own unique reward scheme. Some cards only offer rewards on certain types of spending, whereas others have different reward tiers for different products purchased. Santander's 123 Credit Card, for example, offers 1% cashback on supermarket spending, 2% in department stores and 3% cashback on petrol. For consumers, it's well worth taking a few extra minutes to compare and find the best card for their needs.

"This is why more and more consumers are choosing to visit comparethemarket.com. We offer our customers a quick and easy way to compare the huge variety of types of credit card, helping them to find good offers which best suit their needs."
