The Barclaycard Rewards MasterCard was designed for people with fair credit (i.e. a credit score of 640+). It is no longer available to new applicants, but you can compare other rewards credit cards here.
A Barclaycard Rewards Mastercard approval is often issued instantly if you apply online. But there are times when they need a bit longer to access the required information and make a decision (up to 30 days).
While some applicants may be approved instantly because they match the exact criteria...
The Barclaycard Rewards MasterCard® foreign transaction fee is 3%. The fee applies whether it's a purchase at a physical location in a foreign country or an online transaction through an internationally-based merchant.
If you'd rather avoid this surcharge, check out our editors' latest picks for the best no...
You can transfer up to the amount of your spending limit, after factoring in transfer fees and any unpaid balance on the card that you're transferring to. In other words, it depends on how much available credit you have. Hope that helps!

editor's review
The Barclaycard Rewards MasterCard is one of the best credit cards for fair credit, offering a potentially no-cost option for qualified applicants to continue their credit-building efforts while enjoying rewards that are above average for the credit-card market as a whole. This card is best for people with fair credit who always pay their monthly bill in full and don’t make many purchases from internationally based merchants. That’s because it charges interest at an above-average rate and has a 3% foreign transaction fee.

I can't believe this review. This is the worst card for people with bad credit. Barclay's billing practices are questionable and could send your credit rating even further down.

They give good increases, HOWEVER, they do not apply payments correctly and when you call to have it fixed you can barely talk to a rep who is in the USA, then when you do get a rep instead of fixing the issue they tell you to look at your statement. Like obviously I DID THAT WHICH IS WHY IT NEEDS CORRECTED!! You are unable to speak to the A/R dept!!

So you have to make a payment on your account for a new account to get the credit cards you want and you will be charged with a new one

The interest rate is high on this card however they do run promotions every so often for lowered interest rates. I get $25 Apple Cards when I spend $2500 wish it was just a card I could use anywhere.

I mailed them a payoff check on 2/25/21 that I got by refinancing my house. I sent it certified mail so that I could track when it got there.
It was delivered to their mailbox on 3/3/21. I waited until 3/5/21 before calling them. It still hadn't been picked up.
I asked the 1st person and a supervisor if they would please pick up the check and process it before my due date of 3/8/21. They both quoted me that their mailed payment process takes 7-10 business days and it wouldn't be processed until 3/11/21. They said they wouldn't refund or do anything about the late fee that would be incurred, even though the payoff was sitting in their mailbox for 2 days already and would be there for 5 business days before they processed it.
I had to make an extra payment online and now I will have a couple extra hundred dollars paid on my account when they process the check. I'll have to find out how to get that money back. I will be closing my account as soon as I can.

Used to be a good card only because they rewarded my loyal use and excellent sore with very attractive balance offers. This has been suddenly cut off without explanation. They now have the worst BT offers of any of my card: my regular interest rate plus a 4 fee. By Barclay, you cut the only feature that made it worth having your card, take a hike.

It all starts with a merchant I ordered from who did not send ALL of the order. so naturally I filed a dispute when the merchant ignored my requests for the rest. Barclay basically just added a note to my account and it went on my credit report (just the dispute note, which can harm you if youre trying to buy a house)! They also said I still have to pay the disputed amount and if they rule in my favor then I will get credit (Luckily the merchant made good so I paid it). LOL Go Eff yourself!
Secondly, to get a limit increase, which Ive had this card for a couple years now with a 1500 limit, they put a mark on my credit again by checking. None of my other cards do that and I have a lot. They still turned me down for an increase.
Thirdly, which doesnt have anything to do with me, but still, My friends husband had an account opened is his name by his ex wife unknowingly and she maxed it out. Barclay is still making him pay for it! He obviously won the case against herin court and she has to pay it but cmon, do you think she will? Hes still responsible and still has to pay it off.
So with all of that, and maybe its petty to you, but there are other cards out there that are on the customers side. Discover, the best at customer service, Chase, Citi, Capital one, Theyre all 10 stars better than this hunk of crap Barclay and as soon as I buy my house in the next few months, I am cutting them off. I have stopped using it completely.

Worse customer service. Rudest, disrespectful relationship managers I have ever talk with. You call customer service you get automation service for hours on end and will hang call on you. As I was booking a flight came across an offer they on Priceline if you got the card you get instant 100 dollars discount on your current booking. Guest what, they took all information and approved me for the card but never gave me the credict. Just trying call back and cancel the card for days on end trying to get someone on the line, left on the line for hours on end can’t even cancel the card because can get a live person on the call. it’s a nightmare, don’t fall into this trap.

Please read the reviews before you make the same mistake I did. I have excellent credit (FICO 810) but wanted to transfer 2,000 to Barclay card in light of the 0.00 balance transfer fee/rate offer. After applying for the card (I have never been turned down for credit in 30 years) I was told by Barclay my application was under review. I called once a week for four weeks and was told the same "review process" story. I realized something was not right and read the Terms and Conditions from their website. Barclay's site states "balance transfers that do not post within 45 days of your application will be charged the 13.99% APR." Their Terms and Conditions also state that "balance transfers will not be approved until 10 days after we mail your card to you. Additionally, the small print reads "it takes up to 4 weeks for balance transfers to post to your account." I realized Barclay card was stalling in approving my account so that the balance transfer would fall outside of their "45 days" period. I immediately called and cancelled my balance transfer request and withdrew my application from Barclay card. I then called Discover Card and the 2,000 balance transfer with them was a seamless process and posted to my account the following day. I was almost duped, and I wouldn't want another consumer to have the same experience I did with a creditor who is setting the rules then bending them to their benefit.
