The Key to Earning Free Travel with Your Credit Card.If you want to learn how to get into this rewarding – albeit time-consuming – endeavor then I suggest you check out these posts on the subject. If you’re not quite into travel rewards then you might not have faced this issue yet. I feel like doing this has helped me to simplify my financial life, optimize my credit score, and future-proof my award travel opportunities.Įveryone has different approaches to this so I’m linking to other helpful resources that you might find useful. In fact, I just audited my own suite of credit cards and so I thought I’d share with you my process for identifying my cards, making cancel or “downgrade” decisions, and what new cards I’m considering applying for. I tend to like the 2nd approach (I use but not obsessively) and will usually just conduct an annual audit. occasionally conduct an audit of your credit card situation.


This might have left you feeling disorganized, uneasy, and worried about making a mistake. If you’re like me, you’ve dabbled into the award travel game and found yourself with a wallet – or a desk drawer – full of credit cards many of which you aren’t using anymore.
