ASK YC: What do you think of rewardpick.com?

The idea is to create an Amazon-like community for credit cards. All the card details (names, details, urls, etc) are user submitted. There is an admin approval system to make sure no spam or duplicate card get listed. Feel free to add some. Thanks.

  • I like the layout of the site, but you have an uphill battle. Most sites I've seen that go this way are all ad and scam-- it's very hard for people to push past that. Your site doesn't feel like that now, but you might want to tone it down a little on the graphics. I think being as subtle and simple as possible might help people take the site a little seriously-- you're fighting against some difficult stereotypes and every little bit helps.

    Best of luck!

  • Why would someone get involved with this site instead of doing a Google search for "credit card best ..."? No one needs a "community" for a credit card selection decision.

    Failing that, Consumer Reports has the information at the library.

  • I think people want this information but, like with many UGC sites, there really isn't any reason for me to either submit or rank it.

  • Cool man, I like it. That's an area where Google searches fail consumers.

  • mint.com is featuring better checking accounts and credit cards than the users currently have. Check them out.
