Hey Credit Warriors, now in this video I am going to go through in detail the credit card strategy that has got me over $23,000 worth of free travel over the past few years. So very quickly for those of you that are new, yes you can get a credit card, earn points, hotel free nights and other rewards from that credit card and use those to take flights and stay in hotels for free. I know, its amazing. And if you like the sound of that why not subscribe so you can become a credit card travel hacker and get 10s of thousands of dollars worth of free travel too.

Now credit card points have got me free trips to Cancun, The Cayman Islands, Japan, Taiwan, the UK, and this all comes from following a strategy that you can follow too. I will go through all the luxury travel redemptions i have done and how much they were worth later in the video but first let’s look at my strategy in earning points and spending points.

It would be awesome to see not only what you used the points on but how you spend to get those points maybe a month breakdown

So I just got my first travel card (Amex gold). The best way to use the points is to transfer it directly to the airline instead of using the portal?

I noticed when you apply for too many credit cards for bonus points your credit goes down. I get about 1 credit card every month or 2 bc the bonuses are good.

Spending the Points section info was new to me that you weigh going to the credit travel vs just transferring the points to the airlines.

Hi Credit Shift. Nice videos. Can I get approved for Amex Platinum with mid 700s credit score? I have the Delta Gold Amex card and have had it for 2 years now, never missed a payment and have a good history with it. I am thinking of applying for the Amex platinum Amex card. would I get approved ? Also , what is the difference between the Amex platinum card and the Charles Schwab American Express card? A response would help. Thanks.
