Credit cards for self employed

Anyone have any advice on where is the best place to apply given that I am self employed. My credit rating is good but I know a lot of companies charge ridiculous interest rates.

    Doesn't matter if you're S/E or not it all depends on your credit history.

    If your credit history is good as you say just apply for a card.

    if you pay the CC in full each month then the interest rate won't matter as you pay no interest
  • Try the Capital One Aspire Business MC. I'm also recently self employed and have opened this account. This card provides 5% cash back for the first three months then 1.5% after 99 days. Only had it a month and have already got £40 cash back!
