Finder Credit Cards Customer Satisfaction Awards 2022

Welcome to the Finder Credit Cards Customer Satisfaction Awards 2022

When it comes to picking a credit card, it’s important you get the opinion of the people who matter most: the customers. Our awards are designed to find the credit card providers that really care about their customers, as chosen by you.

The winners

We’ve selected our winners based on two factors: overall satisfaction score (star rating) and recommendation score (if a customer would recommend the credit card provider to a friend). You can read more on our methodology below.

Here are the winners for 2022:

Credit Card Customer Satisfaction Winner:

American Express

For the third year running, American Express is our Customer Satisfaction Award winner, with back-to-back 5-star ratings, and a best-in-class recommendation score. 90% of American Express customers would recommend the provider to a friend.
