About US Credit Card Dex

Our mission

US Credit Card Dex is an independent project by WeLiveInUSA. Our goal is to build the most complete, easy-to-use index of US credit cards, and to make it genuinely useful for the people English-language card sites overlook: new immigrants, international students, and anyone comparing cards in their own language.

Built for six languages

Every card, guide and comparison on this site is available in English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Vietnamese. Filters like 'passport/ITIN accepted', 'student-friendly' and 'no foreign transaction fee' are front and center, because those are the questions newcomers actually ask. A card only gets the passport/ITIN label when the issuer says so on its own site, and the card page quotes that wording.

What you can do here

Answer two quick questions to get matched to cards that fit your credit and income, browse the full Dex with detailed card pages, compare cards side by side, track the biggest current sign-up bonuses, and read plain-English guides on building credit and choosing a card.

How we keep it honest

Where we have checked a card's annual fee, APR and foreign-transaction fee, the card page shows the date and the source. Welcome offers, rewards and benefits are written from the issuer's page as of the last time we reviewed the card; they change often and are frequently personalized, so the issuer's own site is the final word. Cards that stop taking new applications stay on the site, clearly marked, with alternatives. Approval is the issuer's decision and we can't predict it. Nothing here is financial advice.
