  • I believe there are untapped resources out there within local credit unions and regional banks. Redstone Federal Credit Union is one of those gems you can discover if you are cash back focused or your're in the late game looking for keeper cards. Even if you are travel focused, a little cash back injection wont likely hurt your earnings.
    If you are interested in any of the cards mentioned, I have more information about there here:

    What do you think of the Hawaiian Airlines cards? Their personal and business cards have 70k offers with only 2k spend required and adding an authorized user. Hawaiian miles aren't great but they are merging into Alaska and they will become Alaska miles. I'm pretty sure that merger will happen, its a risky play but 140,000 Alaska miles can you get you very very far.

Some of the best credit union cards, like the Vantage West and PCM CU, have strict geofencing. The PCM card is insane: 5% cash back on everything, all the time. No annual fee. It's a Select Employee Group CU, for employers in Marinette, Oconto, or Green Bay. Almost impossible to join if not a family member of an eligible employee.
