CardMatch is a tool created by Bankrate. It’s a tool to match you up with credit cards for which Bankrate believes you have a good chance of approval. 

The approval odds are based on a soft pull that Bankrate will do to check your credit report and stated income. Based on that they will recommend cards to you that they believe you are eligible for.

But there is something exciting about CardMatch that goes deeper than just another credit card recommendation tool. 

Get targeted for better offers via CardMatch

Sometimes the offers you see in CardMatch are higher offers than the publicly available offers.

In my experience, this is mostly true for card_name and card_name cards.

For example, the current public offer for card_name is 80k points after spending $8,000 within the first 6 months. But many people are able to see an offer for all the way up to 150k when checking their recommended offers in the CardMatch tool.

The same is true for the card_name. The current public offer is 60k points after spending $4,000 within the first six months. But many people report seeing an offer all the way up to 90k points when using the CardMatch tool.

Here is how CardMatch works

It’s actually quite straightforward to see if you’re targeted for higher offers in CardMatch.

Just complete these few steps that take just a few seconds and hopefully you will land the 150k gold pot! . 

1. Go to the CardMatch landing page

2. Fill out your basic info

3. Enter the last 4 digits of your social security number (they will do a soft pull on your credit but soft pulls do not affect your credit in anyway)

4. Once you hit this screen then scroll to see if you are targeted for a better offer on card_name or card_name

Did you find a better offer via CardMatch?
