Best Credit Card For Purchase Protection Benefits

All versions of card benefits are not created equal. Below is a quick reference on what cards are best for Purchase Protection benefit.

Credit cards with purchase protection (also called damage protection) cover you in case of damage, theft and sometimes even loss of an item. The item will either be repaired or replaced -- or you'll be reimbursed for the purchase price. The coverage amount can vary widely by card, from $500 to $10,000 per claim. The duration of coverage also tends to vary between 90 and 120 days. The (+) versions have 120 day coverage for up to $10,000 per claim. The (-) versions are less than $1000 per item or claim.

If you have a tendency to lose things, it is worth noting that several of premium Capital One cards also cover lost items.
