Three (3) Types of No Annual Fee Credit Cards

To meet specific needs of specific borrowers, lenders have come up with three types of No Annual Fee Credit Cards.

1. No Annual Fee for the First Year is an option where the annual fee is waived only for the first twelve (12) months or exactly for one (1) year. Then, when the first year is over, starting day 1 of year 2, the regular fee starts to take effect.

2. No Annual Fee for Life obviously means that you will never be charged an annual fee for as long as your credit card account remains active. However, double check the fine prints. Some lenders insert a provision giving them the prerogative to impose a fee after a certain period of time, under certain conditions. Be vigilant about these possibilities so as to avoid paying exorbitant charges or fees later on.

3. No Annual Fee Special Discount. This option is often given to clients who already have an existing account with the lender, bank, or provider. Oftentimes, a No Annual Fee Special Discount is given to a client with a checking account in the same institution.
