Best current credit card offer for use in Israel
« on: September 12, 2021, 05:33:59 AM »
I live in Israel and looking to get a new card for use here, without foreign transaction fees, good points value etc.
What is the best current card for such use? (with a good sign on bonus;)? thanks

I have the same question. But purposely ignoring the sign up bonuses.

Does Chase SP still make more sense vs Amex Gold?

Or even vs. any of the business cards who earn 2x airline miles per $, like Capital One Spark Miles for Business (with 0 foreign transaction fees)

Just looking at the level of acceptance at Israeli merchants, and highest cash back.

Thanks

No foreign transaction fee

The 3 points also apply to grocery and dining in Israel, or just in the US?
