In a holiday season that many of us will spend apart from loved ones, gift-giving might feel even more important than usual. After all, if you can't travel to see family, at least you can see them unwrap gifts over a video call, right?
And just as many families will use a video service for holiday celebrations this year, many will also turn to credit cards to cover their expressions of love. Three-quarters of holiday shoppers are planning to use credit cards to purchase gifts this year, according to a NerdWallet survey of 2,049 U.S. adults conducted online by The Harris Poll.
