0% Credit Cards–A Big List of 0% APR Credit Card Offers
by DR
In part due to the new credit card law that goes into effect next year, 0% APR intro credit cards have become harder and harder to find. Whether you are looking for 0% APR on balance transfers or trying to find a no interest card for purchases, there are a lot fewer 0% into credit card choices today than there were 12 months ago.
So I've put together an exhaustive list of 0% APR intro credit card offers. For each card you'll find information on the zero percent interest deal. You'll also find the annual fee, if any. Clicking on the card name will take you to either our review of the card or the card issuer's site where you can get more details on the card. And if you know of 0% credit cards (intro APR) we should add to the list, please let us know. With that, here's the list:

0% Credit Cards--Tips
As you evaluate the 0% credit cards to find the best one for your financial needs, consider the following:
Risk Based Pricing: Almost all credit cards today use risk based pricing. What this means is that the actual terms of the card will vary depending on the applicant's credit history. Varying interest rates and balance transfer terms, among other things, can be offered based on a individual's credit. As an example, here is the disclosure from HSBC:
It is our goal to offer you the credit card that best fits your credit profile, which may or may not be the card you originally inquired about. You may be offered a secured card or an unsecured card, which may not include a 0% Introductory APR or 1% unlimited cash back, and with different terms and conditions which will be disclosed to you before your application is processed.
Consider 2 or more cards: Depending on your financial needs, it may be best to have two or more 0% credit cards. For example, if you want to take advantage of both a 0% balance transfer and get 0% on purchases, it's best to use two separate cards. There are several reasons for this. For example, if the 0% on purchases expires before the 0% on balance transfers, any extra payment you make will go to the higher interest on purchases first. This changes under the new credit card law, but not until 2010.
Second, you may want to use the entire available credit limit on a balance transfer, which would not leave any available credit to take advantage of the 0% on purchases.
Balance transfer fees: Note that all of the 0% credit cards charge a balance transfer fee. And some of the transfer fees are now as high as 4% or even 5%. If you'd like to know which card we think is the best for transfers, check out the Best Balance Transfer Offer Available.
Terms change: Finally, keep in mind that credit card terms change frequently. While we strive to keep this page updated and accurate, you should always confirm the terms of any offer before applying.

Thanks for sharing such great info, according to me we keep the credit cards as an added facility, but sometimes it cost us too much for making payments of the credit card bills.
