Credit Cards by Provider & Network

Compare credit cards specifically by issuing bank or fintech, or by card network – independent, transparent and free for users.

If you want to compare credit cards in a targeted way, there are two sensible starting points: by the issuing provider – the bank or fintech – or by the card network (Visa, Mastercard or American Express). The provider determines the actual conditions of a card: the annual fee, foreign transaction fee, included extras and the type of repayment. The network mainly decides where the card is accepted – Visa and Mastercard can be used virtually worldwide, while American Express stands out with reward programs at somewhat lower acceptance.

If you already have experience with a particular bank or hold your current account there, starting via the provider makes sense. If instead you care about maximum acceptance while travelling, sorting by network is the faster route. In both cases the linked comparison pages show the specific, up-to-date conditions of each card – independent, transparent and free for users.
