On Tuesday night, I had the pleasure of spending over an hour on Instagram Live interviewing Owen Beiny, aka The Points Partner, on how nearly any consumer can use points, miles, and credit cards to their advantage for free travel.
While we discussed numerous topics relating to free travel, credit cards was the central theme. Which credit cards are good “for you” and what strategies we as consumers should use to get the best value for the credit card points we earn, were key topics discussed.
You can watch the full interview in the embedded video below or on Instagram. Below the video, we’ve linked to all the credit cards mentioned in the interview and the rationale for picking one up.
