Getting the most out of Cash Back Credit Cards

Credit card is a small plastic card which is a system of payments, which is slightly different from Check and Cash Transactions. When a check is presented to a merchant, he presents it for clearing in the bank, who fiddle around with it for a while and clear the money and pay it into the merchant’s account. Credit Card works the other way around. The electronic swiping machine charges the card account immediately, and the payment for the transaction hits the merchant’s account immediately, and the card holder’s statement will be generated only after 30 days. Once the statement is generated, he can pay the bill in 20 days from the generation of the bill. Thus he saves interest for his money for nearly 50 days.

For this reason, Payment processors charge the merchant a fee of a minimum of 2.2% as Transaction Discount Charge for Visa and Master Cards, and even higher for Amex and Discover. So, if you make a transaction of $100 through a payment gateway, to pay for any product or service that you may purchase, the gateway gets $2.2 at the least.

At times, to make customers spend more money on their credit card than pay by cash or check, so that their revenue goes up, which they banks cannot expect from cash and check transactions, they offer cash back on credit cards. And to people who do a lot of transactions, they offer certain cards called Cash Back Cards. These cards give you cash back on any transaction described by the card Issuer, and naturally, you will have a cap on the limit of cash back that you would be paid.

That way, the bank makes you spend more money with your card, and keeps control over the money that is being shelled out from the bank’s pockets.

So, how do we make the best out of Cash Back Credit Cards?

1. Don’t use cash anywhere.Use your card for fuel, utility bills, grocery and any minor expense that you have.

2. Pay your landlord through paypal with your card.

3. If anyone in your family is using a regular credit card to book a flight ticket, insist that you book with your card, and get the money from them and pay it into your card so that you can spend more.

4. Even when you think you have reached the Cap on the cash back, spend more so that you get the reward points which can be redeemed for goodies later.

5. Make company transactions with your credit card, and get a reimbursement from your accounts guy.

6. Revolving funds like this not only gets you cash back and reward points, but you also get a very good credit rating.

7. When you do a lot of this, there is a possiblity that you negotiate with the bank for a higher cap on the cash back, and then when you spend more, you get more cash back, which you can spend again the forthcomming month.
