About this episode
Taylor Thomas returns to discuss credit card strategies for Amazon sellers, including 0% APR stacking and maximizing signup bonuses.
He has 30+ credit cards. His credit score is excellent. And he built $142,000 in 0% APR credit limits across banks to scale his purchasing power.

This time we go deep on credit card strategy for Amazon sellers: how to time applications across banks, the 5/24 rule, stacking credit limits on 0% APR cards, and why a seller spending $8K/month on inventory is leaving $10K+ per year on the table in signup bonuses alone. We also cover discount gift card best practices, the cashback model transition at Arbitrage Card, and how to turn credit card points into real travel value.
