Home Improvement Credit Cards

Credit Cards That Give Home Improvement Rewards

We have introduced a new category of credit cards to make your credit card search as quick and easy as possible. Home improvement reward credit cards offer reward programs to cardholders that are geared toward home improvement rewards and rebates.

There are two main “types” of home improvment credit cards:

1. Credit cards that allow cardholders to accumulate reward points that can be used to redeem home-improvement related rewards. For example, a credit card may have a reward program in which cardholders accumulate points that can be redeemed for home improvement store gift cards, actual physical home improvement goods or home mortgage rebates. This example is purely hypothetical.

2. Credit cards that allow cardholders to earn additional rewards or rebates for “home improvement” purchases. For example, a cash back credit card may offer 1% cash back on all purchases, while offering an additional 1% cash back (for a total of 2%) on purchases made at home improvement stores. Again, this example is purely hypothetical.

Make your next credit card decision a knowledgeable one. A well-picked credit card reward program can be very valuable to a cardholder, as long as that cardholder uses the card responsibly and makes all payments on time. See our rewards categories breakdown for more information about different types of credit card reward programs or visit our credit card tips and advice for answers to common questions about credit card reward programs.
