Finance Globe awarded these credit cards that had specific quality standards
with the Credit Card of the Month title for 2008.
We built this archive so you can view the history of the award titles.
With hundreds of cards to choose from, this honorable award archive for 2008
gives potential credit card applicants good direction when choosing a card, even
when it was chosen for previous months.
We looked for specific criteria when our staff hand picked a new awardee each
month. Due to our favoritism policy, a card offer can only be awarded one time.
Additionally, the card information listed may have changed since the card was
given the award, such as an increase in APR, change in benefits or fees.
