What the Critics Are Saying...
- Nouri Zarrugh, BankrateIf you want a simple way to earn cash back while you build credit as a student, the Quicksilver Student card will do the trick. It offers a competitive flat rate at a low cost, but the card's high APR could pose a risk to students who don’t pay their balance in full each month.
- Chris Butsch, MoneyUnder30Students will love the simplicity of this cash back credit card from Capital One. Earn an unlimited 1.5% cash back on every purchase, every day, and your rewards won’t expire for the life of the account. Plus there’s no annual fee, foreign transaction fees, or other hidden fees to worry about.
- Brett Holzhauer, MoneyGeekThe Capital One Quicksilver Student Rewards card is best for students building their credit while earning rewards. It offers high-quality benefits to those who travel since cardholders have access to complimentary concierge service 24/7 and don’t have to pay foreign transaction fees.
- Jennifer Doss, CardRatings.comA good card to help you start building your credit and to earn some money in the process thanks to its cash back rewards. The high APR makes it a good idea to pay the balance of this card off each month, which is also a great habit to adopt for long-term credit card usage.
- Itzel Garcia Ruiz, CreditCards.comOffering one of the cash back rates of any student card, the Quicksilver Student should be a solid foundation for student credit builders looking for a streamlined rewards program.
