They're providing value to consumers. Here are some of the features I love about my credit card:

- Purchase protection; I feel totally confident in buying anything, even from sketchy sites and strange stalls, because if there's a problem Visa immediately reverses it

- Rewards: I have hundreds of thousands of miles from credit card rewards. This represents literally thousands of dollars in value the cards have provided me.

- Concierge: I sometimes have my concierge serve as a VA.
