Discover it® Cash Back
This card does two jobs really well: the 0% intro APR for 15 months on purchases and balance transfers (then 17.49% - 26.49% Variable APR) gives you a clean runway to tackle both old and new debt, and the cash back setup gives you ongoing value long after the intro offer ends. It's a rare combo that's hard to beat.
