With the merger of other large domestic carriers, US Airways is now the smallest of the remaining legacy airlines. Nevertheless, they have retained their status as a member of the Star Alliance, arguably the largest of the three major airline partnerships. The US Airways Dividend Miles frequent flier program retains much of its value largely due to member’s access to partner awards on Star Alliance carriers such as United, Lufthansa, and Air Canada. Even infrequent customers of US Airways have the opportunity to earn Dividend Miles through the US Airways World MasterCard and the U.S. Airways Premier World MasterCard
Like most airline credit cards, U.S. Airways World MasterCard members earn 1 mile per dollar spent and two miles on purchases from US Airways. Cardholders will also benefit from a 5,000 point discount on award redemptions. Th

The market for cash back reward credit cards is very crowded as a growing number of customers prefer cash to loyalty points. Every major bank offers at least one product that allows consumers to earn cash back and these cards are typically distinguished by the categories that return higher cash back percentages. Bank of America’s BankAmericard Cash Rewards card is aimed at customers who want to earn more cash back for the purchases they make most often.
On most purchases, BankAmericard Cash Rewards users earn one percent cash back, with two percent being earned on groceries, and three percent returned on gasoline. Additionally, customers who redeem their rewards into a Bank of America checking or savings account can earn an additional bonus equal to 10% of their cash back rewards (not 10% of their purchases).
The 2% on groceries and 3% on gas offered unfortunately only apply to a cardholder’s first $1,500 spent in each bonus category, each quarter. Onc

Lowe’s is one of the two largest home improvement stores in the United States. Like most major retailers, Lowes offers their own credit cards that can be used to finance in-store purchases: the standard Lowe’s Credit Card and the Lowe’s Project Card. Like most store credit cards, the Lowe’s card has some advantages. However, most consumers are better off choosing a 0% APR credit card that provides a cash back sign up bonus and rewards rather than a high rate card that is really only useful in one location.
Both the standard Lowe’s Credit Card and the Lowes Project card are store credit cards. They are not affiliated with any major credit card payment network so they can thus only be used for purchases at Lowe’s. Cardholders of the standard Lowe’s Card receive their choice of either a 5% discount on purchases or 0% promotional financing for six months. The standard ca
