28 May
Summary
- Bank of America and U.S. Bank tied for first place.
- Issuers offer new BNPL options to ease cash flow.
- Primary cardholders gain more control over user access.
Bank of America and U.S. Bank have been recognized as co-leaders in the 2026 Online Credit Card Scorecard by Keynova Group. This annual evaluation benchmarks the user experience provided by leading credit card issuers.
Amidst economic challenges, issuers are introducing innovative features. Half of the evaluated issuers now offer Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) options for credit card purchases, assisting cardholders with cash flow management. U.S. Bank uniquely provides a BNPL card that splits qualifying transactions into interest-free installments, with options for extended repayment periods.
Furthermore, online tools are enhancing account management for primary cardholders. Forty percent of issuers now offer tiered digital account access, allowing primary cardholders to grant varying levels of permission to delegated users, such as family members or financial advisors. Controls for authorized users are also expanding, with many issuers providing transaction visibility by purchaser and the ability to set distinct credit limits.
