Ikea Visa

Interesting read until I saw Comenity lol. For a card collector could be another notch on the belt

Dang. I love IKEA. Staging houses can be expensive. It's only 20 mins away. They start breakfast at 9am and doors open at 10. Community does not like me. Not one little tiny bit. Shoot. Let's see some approvals.

Just tried that pre-qualification thingy. Lol

Not going to bite either. I don't have any comenity cards.

I was wondering if anyone here was going to bite at that card, I'm in rebuilding and was hoping to get the pre-qualification yet I didn't lol.  IKEA would actually be the one card from Comenity that I would use seeing as I need furniture. Oh well

I think some folks are going to think about this one for a bit, given Comenity's track record in general and other alternatives out there.

There's definitely not going to be a surge on apps for this one, but I'm sure folks will be asking if there's a SCT for it 😄

Interesting that you can check prequal for the store card but not the Visa

Comenity is handing these out like candy....  (too bad it is Comenity)

[Jnbmom]

Maybe not candy for all lol, I tried for the heck of it as I  have NO interest in the card, hubby prequalified I did NOT.

Wth lol my scores are much higher than his

Rewards are issued in $15 increments and must be redeemed in 45 days. You'd need to be a pretty regular shopper to benefit.

This needs to be highlighted. With other cash back and reward cards you can accumulate a nice amount then choose to redeem. With US Bank and some others the rewards do expire after a few years, but at least you have control. 

Having IKEA spit a $15 reward at you and expire 45 days later forces you to head to IKEA to pick up that lousy amount. 

This is is not a reward card. It is a penalty card. 

Stay with Credit One.
