No paid placement. No issuer pays VaultRubric for inclusion or rank; links go to the issuer's own page. Ranks come only from the published rubric below.

Equal weights on all criteria.

How we rank (the rubric)

• Annual fee
• Rewards rate
• Sign-up bonus
• Intro 0% APR
• Regular APR
• Foreign transaction fee
• Regulatory record (CFPB)

Each criterion is scored 0–10 from the sourced value (formulas shown on each card page), weighted equally, and missing data is imputed conservatively; cards missing annual fee or APR can't be the top pick. Same rubric engine as the rest of VaultRubric (methodology).

FAQ

How are these ranked?

By VaultRubric's published rubric (annual fee, rewards, bonus, intro APR, regular APR, foreign fee, CFPB regulatory record), not by payments.

Estimates, not financial advice. Taxes, insurance, PMI and fees vary by lender, county and city; confirm with your lender, dealer and state agency before acting.
