CardPointers is an amazing app for tracking and optimizing your points.
Don’t forget to try the “reconsideration line” if you ever get declined for a card
If you have an old card, don’t cancel the card, it’s helping your credit score! If it has a fee you don’t want to pay, ask to get the card downgraded to a no annual fee card.
When appropriate: don’t pay in cash, pay in gift cards!
