Plan your expenses

As always, the first reminder is to plan your monthly expenses over the next 6 months.

It’s not about getting into debt to earn points; it’s about managing your finances properly.

For example, here are expenses that many of us have:

  • Groceries
  • Monthly subscriptions
  • Online shopping
  • Municipal or School taxes
  • Taxes
  • Home Improvement
  • And many more

For each expense item, define how much you spend monthly. That way, you’ll know which credit cards to apply for to get many points as a welcome bonus!

And we have some tips to unlock welcome bonuses, by finding expenses you don’t currently pay for with a credit card.
