How to get 5% back on everything

Multiple strategies inside this newsletter

All you readers likely want to get the most out of your credit cards on your spend - and 5% sounds amazing, but hard to obtain without opening new cards every month or quarter.

Sure, chasing sign-up bonuses provides 5%, 10%, or even 17.5% back on your spend, but it’s not for everyone. But you CAN maybe earn a minimum of 5% on your spend… would it be that hard?

Yes.. and no - obviously if it was so easy everyone would do it, but it may not be as hard as you might think. Read the full blog post for the details or below for the overview.

There are several strategies to earn the most out of your credit card set up.

Method #1: Get the Chase Ink Business Cash to get Mastercard or Visa gift cards when they are on sale at Staples or Office Depot.

Method #2: Get a mix of credit cards that earn 5% back on various categories. Bonus hint - you can get multiples on some of these cards.

Method #3: Become a Bank of America Platinum Honors member with $100K invested/saved with them and get multiple Bank of America Customized Cash reward cards to get 5.25% back on major categories.

Method #4: Pursue some 3-4% cards like the US Bank Smartly, Robinhood Gold, and some cryptocurrency cards.

Weekly Credit Card Tip #24

Most credit cards have the ability where you can auto-redeem your cash back when it reaches a certain point. There’s rarely any reason to build up a cash back stockpile so it’s best to redeem is sooner. Cash back doesn’t earn interest or grow over time, so keeping it saved just loses value.
