is there a site where you can place your offer to transfer credit card balance to see which company will bid the lowest rate, including rewards?

That would be fantastic, I doubt it exists.

It's important to understand that you're supposed to incur lots of credit inquiries shopping around. Subsequently your credit score will go so low you'll be lucky to get approved for NO perks and 20%+ interest rates.

Allowing you to shop for credit cards by soliciting "bids" would greatly reduce corporate profits.
