About SwipeSmart

SwipeSmart is an independent educational resource that helps people understand credit cards through a quick quiz, plain-language guides and a simple payoff calculator. We are not a bank, card issuer, lender or financial advisor, and we don't sell or originate credit cards.

Our aim is to make credit cards less confusing so you can ask sharper questions and make informed decisions. Every quiz answer includes a short explanation, and every figure on the site is illustrative.
