Why is credit cards better than cash?

Question

ive always wondered why?

Answer 1

Credit cards definately are NOT better than cash. If you forget to pay your credit card bill, it can put you into debt FAST.

What I think you mean is a debit card. A debit card is way better than cash. Its just safer. If you someone steals your cash, you aren't getting that back. If someone steals your debit card and you report it quickly enough, you may get the cash back or stop the loss of money all together.

You should go debit first and then get a credit card later. Hope that helps!

Answer 2

It depends on how you use it.  Credit cards often give you purchase security and earn rewards.
