I got the Chase Sapphire Reserve back in 2016 when it was first released. While I’ve enjoyed the benefits of this card over the past four years, I made the tough decision to downgrade when my annual fee hit this year. Here’s why I downgraded my Chase Sapphire Reserve and what product I changed to.…
After a few months of no improved credit card offers, we’re starting to see an uptick in increased sign-up bonuses, especially from Chase. The newest ones on the list are the Southwest and United cards from Chase. You might not need the miles now, but they could come in handy in the future. Here’s my…
Earlier this month, I applied for the Chase Ink Cash business card. While the result wasn’t what I hoped, there was another issue. I got two alerts from Experian stating that my credit was pulled. Unfortunately, this has happened to others as well as reported by Doctor of Credit. If this happened to you, here’s…

If you want to maximize your points and miles through everyday spending, you’re going to need credit cards that earn more than 1 point per dollar spent.
