No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I have a card with about 2k balance... should I apply for a new card and take advantage of no interest? My fico score is roughly 722.

No. If you have no other means to pay this in full, or move it to another card for a few months, you have bigger fish to fry. Get established with a credit union that has a card with low/no BT fees and single digit fixed interest. Also make sure you have at least 6 months of an emergency fund (ideally 1 yr), and have a high yield checking account that pays you 3-5% interest on your balance.
The amount of interest you would pay on this is not worth the hard inquiry. At least to me.
Ok. Good enough for me Yeah, I could pay it off in a few months, I just wasn't sure. Also, PROBABLY better to minimize the hard pulls. Thanks!
I'm also in the same position, but my scores range in the lower 600's, and i had a bankruptcy ch. 7 discharge 2 years ago. What balance transfer cards would be good for me? Thanks
