    Hi Martin, welcome! The site is USA focused since that is where Ben is primarily located but also because that is where the credit card marketplace allows for greater opportunities. Tiffany does have a primer for non USA folks that you can find here: [URL]http://onemileatatime.boardingarea.com/2015/07/30/choose-credit-card-outside-us/[/URL]

    Unless you have a US SSN

    Or possibly a ITIN

    It’s simply impossible to get US credit cards in most cases today.

    Try reading this and see if it helps

    Also Citi has this, might be possible to start a customer relationship with one of their European branches and then use that for a basis for a US account.
