Some time ago people were raving about the Norwegian card, only that the interest rate is high. you get points with Norwegian. not sure if that still holds.
It does.
Do you have a link to apply/get more info for this card? I'm interested.

They had a helpful ad when I googled norwegian credit card, or rather i typed the first part and the mind reading machine suggested the credit card bit.

edit. and now there is an ad for one below this thread even!

I've also been using for the last 2 years the points from the norwegian CC to get free flights, hopefully now air norwegian doesn't go tits up and spoils the fun

weststeincard.com is a cheap prepaid credit card (master card)
I have used it and it works very well
they ask 1 euro per month fee
weststein is not a c.c. it's a prepaid debit card, and why pay 1 e. a month when transferwise borderless account with debit card is 100% free and you get much more, free euro IBAN, UK account, US and australian bank accounts come also with it for free

Don't understand the point of a credit card if there are no points/cash back
when a card or the number is stolen and used to make purchases, your money/credit is locked. If it's a debit card, money in that account would be locked for weeks until dispute resolution - which you'd win later for certain but having thousands of euros frozen is not something to be taken lightly.

I cut all my debit cards into pieces after learning that.
Well don't put all your eggs in one basket

I disagree. Weststein is a credit card. I can be used online at some sites to pay for merchandise. But it does not work all sites and gives error messages.
I tried to use it to pay in gas station, but it did not work. So it is some kind of credit card still.
Also with this credit card you are protected as a buyer and can make a credit card chargeback if you have a problem.
Since when the difference between a DC and a CC is the fact that it can or cannot be used at a petrol station? It clearly says that this card is a PREPAID, which means you need to have the necessary amount on it to make the purchase, which is not the case with a CC, since you get CREDIT from a bank to pay what you want to buy and then pay the interests on it, unless you pay the balance in full, usually by the 15th of the following month
