Very informative! Not sure if you have much knowledge in travel credit cards to earn points, I am interested in getting one what are your top 3 travel cards?
Hi, thank you and a very good question that we get asked a lot; 3 things to remember when considering a new Credit Card! 1 NEVER apply for a new credit card unless you plan on playing it off in full each billing cycle 2 ALWAYS search around to find the best sign-up bonus for a new credit card (it helps to look online in incognito mode or get a referral in 2 player mode). 3 The best Credit Card is subjective and can different for each person Taking all that into consideration here are my top 3: 1 CHASE SAPPHIRE PREFERRED or RESERVE (this depends on your needs and what you are looking for in a CC), the Preferred is a great starter travel card at only $95/year. The Sapphire is for more advanced travelers and is more expensive at $550/year but with added benefits and better protections (and with the annual $300 travel credit the card is effectively $250/year and with other benefits that would effectively bring this lower 2 CHASE INK Business and INK Unlimited -Theses are both business cards and generally have large sign up bonuses and no annual fee and a great card to pair with one of the Sapphire Cards. (Almost anyone can apply for a business card, even if you just sell items online.) *** You still will need to hold one of the 3 SAPPHIRE cards to use these points with travel partners (Sapphire Preferred, Reserve or Ink Preferred) 3 For a no fee card I like the Chase Freedom Flex with no annual fee and 5% quarterly rotating categories and also great to pair with one of the Sapphire Cards. *** You still will need to hold one of the 3 SAPPHIRE cards to use these points with travel partners (Sapphire Preferred, Reserve or Ink Preferred Other cards we like depending on your situation and needs: -American Express Gold, 4% on shopping and Restaurants with a $325 annual fee -American Express Blue Business plus card 2% on purchases and no annual fee -Capitol One Venture X - Great premium Card -Capital One Savor One - Great card to pair with Venture X as it has no annual fee and great 3% cashback categories I hope this helps and Safe Travels!

Hi, thank you and a very good question that we get asked a lot; 3 things to remember when considering a new Credit Card!
1 NEVER apply for a new credit card unless you plan on playing it off in full each billing cycle
2 ALWAYS search around to find the best sign-up bonus for a new credit card (it helps to look online in incognito mode or get a referral in 2 player mode).
3 The best Credit Card is subjective and can different for each person
Taking all that into consideration here are my top 3:
1 CHASE SAPPHIRE PREFERRED or RESERVE (this depends on your needs and what you are looking for in a CC), the Preferred is a great starter travel card at only $95/year. The Sapphire is for more advanced travelers and is more expensive at $550/year but with added benefits and better protections (and with the annual $300 travel credit the card is effectively $250/year and with other benefits that would effectively bring this lower
2 CHASE INK Business and INK Unlimited -Theses are both business cards and generally have large sign up bonuses and no annual fee and a great card to pair with one of the Sapphire Cards. (Almost anyone can apply for a business card, even if you just sell items online.)
*** You still will need to hold one of the 3 SAPPHIRE cards to use these points with travel partners (Sapphire Preferred, Reserve or Ink Preferred)
3 For a no fee card I like the Chase Freedom Flex with no annual fee and 5% quarterly rotating categories and also great to pair with one of the Sapphire Cards.
*** You still will need to hold one of the 3 SAPPHIRE cards to use these points with travel partners (Sapphire Preferred, Reserve or Ink Preferred
Other cards we like depending on your situation and needs:
-American Express Gold, 4% on shopping and Restaurants with a $325 annual fee
-American Express Blue Business plus card 2% on purchases and no annual fee
-Capitol One Venture X - Great premium Card
-Capital One Savor One - Great card to pair with Venture X as it has no annual fee and great 3% cashback categories
I hope this helps and Safe Travels!
