State Bank Of India (SBI) Credit Cards: Benefits, Types, Offers
Credit cards are a convenient way to pay for things, but convenience can come at a cost. People often spend more when they use a credit card than they would if they were using cash. Thus it is important to ask yourself questions like: is the card providing you the maximum credit period? What is the interest cost if there is any default in payments? Are there any hidden costs associated with the card? Only after satisfying such queries should you go for a credit card. "A credit card can build your credit rating if you pay it regularly and help you getting other loans easily with better interest rates. You can earn reward points which can be redeemed for other products and services in the future," said Rahul Agarwal, Director Wealth Discovery/EZ Wealth.
Banks offer the option of credit cards. In fact, State Bank of India (SBI), the largest lender of the country, offers many types of credit cards.
