Deserve® Edu Mastercard for Students
The Deserve® Edu Mastercard for Students is one of the best credit cards for international students because it has a $0 annual fee, a $0 foreign transaction, and no SSN requirement. Deserve EDU accepts the combination of a passport, proof of a U.S. bank account, and some other basic documentation instead of a Social Security number. The Deserve EDU Mastercard also rewards cardholders with 1% cashback on all purchases.
