Cashback Credit Cards vs Reward – What’s the Right One?

Not sure how to choose between a cashback credit card and a reward credit card? Here are a few hints on how to compare credit cards to help you decide which one is the right one for you.

Definitions:
A cashback credit card gives you – what else? – cash back on your purchases made with that credit card. The amount is usually a percentage of the purchase from .5% to 5% on certain purchases. Depending on the particular card, the cash back may be a flat rate on any purchase that you make, a percentage of certain qualifying purchases or a combination of the two.

Example: The Morgan Stanley Platinum gives you 1% cash back on the first
