Terms of Service
Effective date: March 12, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using PennySwiper at pennyswiper.com ("the Site"), you agree to these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, please do not use the Site. We may update these Terms at any time; continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
2. Description of Service
PennySwiper is a free informational tool that helps users identify credit cards that may earn high cash back or rewards rates at specific merchants. The Site is provided as-is for informational purposes only.
PennySwiper is not a financial advisor, bank, credit card issuer, or financial services company. Nothing on this Site constitutes financial advice. All content is for informational and comparison purposes only.
3. Accuracy of Reward Rates
Credit card reward rates, annual fees, category eligibility, and other terms change frequently. PennySwiper makes reasonable efforts to keep its data accurate and current, but we make no warranty, express or implied, that the reward rates shown on this Site are accurate, complete, or current at the time you view them.
You are solely responsible for verifying all card terms, reward rates, annual fees, and eligibility requirements directly with the card issuer before applying for or using any credit card.
Notable situations where rates may differ from what's shown:
- Rotating quarterly categories (e.g., Chase Freedom Flex, Discover it) change each quarter and require activation by the cardholder
- Some reward rates are subject to monthly or quarterly caps that may not be reflected in our results
- Card issuers may change reward structures, category eligibility, or merchant category codes at any time
- Co-branded cards (e.g., Amazon Prime Visa) may require specific memberships or subscriptions to earn elevated rates
4. Affiliate Relationships
PennySwiper participates in affiliate programs with credit card issuers and affiliate networks including CJ Affiliate and Impact. When you click an "Apply Now" link on our Site and are approved for a credit card, we may receive a commission from the card issuer or affiliate network.
This commission is paid by the issuer โ it does not affect your card terms, annual fee, or rewards rates in any way. It does not cost you anything extra.
Our rankings and recommendations are based on reward rates and card terms, not on commission rates. See our Advertiser Disclosure for full details.
5. No Warranty / Limitation of Liability
THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, PennySwiper's total liability for any claim arising from use of the Site shall not exceed zero dollars ($0), as the Site is provided free of charge.

The Site contains links to third-party websites, including credit card application pages. These links are provided for your convenience. We have no control over third-party sites and are not responsible for their content, privacy practices, or terms. Your interactions with third-party sites are governed entirely by their own terms.
