Order to get a proof of this card I Highly recommend that you have a credit Score of at least 670 anything about Love that I'd say you have an 80 chance Of them automatically approving you now The third card on this list you're going To notice a little bit of a theme here So far but this is another no annual fee Card and it's actually what I label to Be one of the best beginner no annual Fee credit cards within the space to Drop this year and that is going to be The Capital One saver one card all right So this card has a lot of similarities To the chase turn on Flex card so we'll Make this one a little bit more quick You get the welcome bonus same thing After you spend 500 in three months you Get 200 back which is phenomenal in Terms of where this card stands out to Be one of the best is the fact that you Get a free Uber one membership until November of 2024 you also get 10 Cashback on Uber and ubereat purchases For a limited time you get eight percent Cash back on Capital One Entertainment Purchases you get five percent back on Capital One travel purchases you get Three percent back on dining and grocery Purchases you get three percent back on Entertainment three percent back on Popular streaming services and I'm Nearly out of breath here you guys but We are at the end you got one X back on

Everything else now you know what this Card reminds me of if you've ever played Call of Duty it's like getting just a Regular gun and putting it into that Pack-a-Punch machine yeah this is a Regular credit card it went through the Pack-a-Punch machine and it came out Busting so obviously this card is going To be most valuable for anyone who lives In a city where you tend to use Uber or Ubereats a lot now I don't live in the City per se but I still happen to use Ubereats quite frequently and this cart Is just so phenomenal for that so by Pairing this card you get five percent Off on ubereats orders with that Uber One membership and then you getting the 10 cash back literally means you're Saving about 15 on your Uber Eats food And then also you get that Uber one Membership where it also waves off that Delivery fee that normally you would Have to pay so to get approved for this Card just have a score of at least 670 You should get automatically approved All right fourth credit card here on This list we're halfway through this is Going to be the American Express gold Card and this is is actually one of my Number one annual fee credit cards and Still something that I carry within my Wallet that I use almost every single Day that I'm eating out now the American Express gold card is truly unmatched as

A primary dining and grocery store card For the welcome bonus offer look they're Gonna step it up a notch okay 60 000 Membership reward points after you spend Four thousand dollars and not three Months which is the normal time frame But you have six months to do that now Sixty thousand points what is that worth Well one point to one cent on the most Conservative side is gonna reward you Six hundred dollars cash back in your Pocket if you end up getting a one cent To two point Redemption that's about Twelve hundred dollars back in value and You can see how this card is already Starting to beef up against some of the No annual fee cards that we mentioned Either way I think this card works so Well with any other card just because The three ones that we mentioned are Still no annual fees it costs you zero Dollars to hold them and now that we're Talking about some of the annual fee Cards this just adds a little bit of an Amplified boost all right with this card Though you get 4X back at restaurants Worldwide not just in the US including Takeout and delivery and then you also Get Forex back at U.S supermarkets now This benefit here is so good that they Actually capped it at 25 000 per year so You can get Forex here using this card And then you can opt in for one of your No annual fee cards to recoup some of

This card just linked up with your Uber App you're going to see that credit Automatically load in there without any Additional work which comes in at ten Dollars every single month with this Card you also get a 100 experience Credit on a minimum two night stay book Through the AmEx Hotel Collection and With that all of it comes at you with a Cost of 250 dollars per year but if You're maximizing even just those dining Credits and the Uber credits this card's Annual fee comes out to effectively just Like 30 40 bucks a year depending on how You see it to get a proof of this card I Highly recommend that you have a bit of A better score around 690 I think would Be pretty solid for this next card here On my list way different all right we Just went from no annual fee to an Annual fee and now we're going to change It up this is no annual fee but this is Not a personal card this is what I Consider to be one of the best business Credit cards out on the market now hear Me out before you Skip Along this video Saying okay Brian I don't qualify for Business credit cards okay I'm gonna Just move on get your get back here all Right first of all the chase Inc Business Cash Card super strong welcome Bonus offer like I said no annual fee You're gonna come out net positive and On top of that if you are questioning

Whether or not you qualify for business Credit cards for the past five years I've been making content in order to Help you guys get business credit cards All for free it's actually very simple Little Brian Jung coming out of Community College with glasses and a Terrible haircut was able to get six Business credit cards within his first One to two years of hopping into the Space if I was able to do it I know that You guys can too because the term of Business is super loose the IRS defines Business as a sole proprietor this means That you can start something as a Freelancer as a contractor as someone One who's tutoring kids as someone who's Doing Uber eat deliveries at instacart Delivery driver someone who walks dogs On Rover and you are technically Considered to be a business owner Meaning you qualify for any of these Business credit cards look I'm not gonna Get into it if you want to learn more About that check out my ultimate Business credit card guide video and Make sure you have a notebook out there When you do watch it because it's a lot Of valuable stuff other than that with This card here you're going to be Getting a 750 cash bonus after you spend At six thousand dollars on purchases Within the first three months now by the Way this offer might have gone up okay

I'm not sure if it's hopping in yet but I did get word on this street that There's right now a 900 cash bonus offer Which is insane on the ink cash and on The Inc unlimited cards if you know you Have some big purchases coming up and You can hit that welcome bonus offer Spend which is about two thousand Dollars every three months which I think Most people are still able to do this Card is by far one of the highest valued Ones that you could get in terms of the Earning rates very simple you get 5 Percent back on all Lyft rides you get Five percent cash back on twenty five Thousand dollars worth of spend at Office supply stores internet cable Phone services and then you get two Percent cash back on the first twenty Five thousand dollars spent at gas Stations and at restaurants now look With some of the previous cars that we Mentioned yeah gas and restaurants are Gonna be beat out on the earning rates But keep in mind this is a no annual fee Card and then you get five percent back On a lot more interesting categories That generally other credit cards do not Ever offer what I love most about this Car too is that it has the 12 month zero Percent APR introductory period meaning That if you do happen to buy a lot of Stuff for your business okay and you Aren't able to pay off your credit card

Within that 12-month period and then say On the last day of the 12 month you Actually paid off in full you're not Going to see your personal credit score Getting impacted and that's because Generally with at least the cards we're Mentioning here on this channel these Business credit cards do not report onto Your personal credit score so Equifax TransUnion Experian there they're not Going to hear about this balance on your Business credit cards so whatever Happens with your business it stays on The business side now this is a bit more Of a risky method I'd only recommend Someone to do this if they are confident With their ability to scale a brand new Business but always be careful when You're playing around with credit card Debt because it could lead to a lot of Tremendous issues down the road if you Don't know how to settle it or if you Just happen to go a little bit crazy With your spending on things you don't Need on things that you can't pay off in Full I do want to mention that this card Here if you refer your friends you can Earn up to an additional 200 000 bonus Points every single year that's two Thousand dollars in cash which is pretty Insane and I've yet heard a credit card That is offering this much in their Referral bonuses so if you have a bunch Of friends who's trying to start their

Own business too this card is perfect Because if you refer them as well you Can go ahead and earn a bunch of points Where I believe 200 000 points that's a Good vacation almost anywhere here in The United States now to get approved For this card I highly recommend that You have a score at least like 690 maybe 700 on the safer side if you have that You should be good to go now moving back To the personal side let's take a look At the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card one Of my favorite starter cards it has a Lower annual fee but still a travel Credit card this card is still perfect For anyone who's still just trying to Tiptoe into the space you might not be Traveling every single month like the Ballers that you see on social media I Don't know how they do it I really don't But if you're someone who's traveling Maybe once or twice a year I think this Card is still perfect so with this card 60 000 Chase Ultimate reward points After you spend four thousand dollars in The first six months of owning this card After that you get 5x total points on Travel purchase through the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal then you get 3x Points on dining including eligible Delivery services take out and dining Out and then on top of that you'll get 3x points on online grocery purchases Which excludes Target Walmart and

Wholesale clubs and then you get 3x Points on select streaming services and Then 2x points on all other travel Purchases now this this car doesn't stop There you also get a 50 Hotel credit Every account anniversary year that can Be used for hotel stays through that Chase portal now by the way as someone Who's used use the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal for many many years this Is not like a portal where they up Charge you on the back end to make it Seem like you're getting a good deal They are usually very comparable in Their price on top of that you also get 200 in partner credits just by using This card on things like doordash Instacart Peloton and as someone who got The Peloton recently these little things I really do value you know I just Realized too I used instacart and Peloton like the most so if you're Similar to me and you value any of those Things as well the Chase card is Definitely going to resonate with you Even more now if you want to get a proof Of this card I highly recommend that you Have a score of at least 690. moving on Probably one of the best travel credit Cards that they've added into the game And a card that I'm looking to apply for Actually next is going to be the Capital One Venture X card now if you might be Wondering why I didn't talk about the

Chase Sapphire Reserve because the Chase Sapphire Reserve I actually got like two Months ago you need to know that you can Only hold one of the Chase Sapphire Cards at a time and right now I think The Capital One Venture X card is just Gonna offer you a little bit more now Now the reason for this is because the Welcome bonus offer is solid you'll get 75 000 miles which is also 750 in cash After you spend four thousand dollars in Six months now by the way guys points And Miles they're interchangeable 750. That's the base rate one point to one Cent with this card you'll also be Getting a 10 000 mile bonus which means Every single account anniversary year You're just getting about a hundred Dollars back with this card you can also Now get 10x models on hotels and rental Cars booked through capital and travel Portal and by the way the travel portal Is pretty good you can price match They'll price alert you if the price Drops it's been pretty good for a lot of People so if you're trying to book Through here using cash I think right There if you have this card it's a No-brainer you get 5x miles on flights Booked through the capital and travel Portal 2 and then you get 2x miles on All other purchases keep in mind it's Rare that you're gonna get a card that's Going to give you pretty much 10 cash

Uber okay so you can get that 10 to 15 Back the Chase Freedom Flex card you're Also going to be getting five percent Back on rotating categories so so the One that I think comes in handy is going To be PayPal I would use this card until You cap out the amount of spend that you Have and then rotate back onto another Card by the way you also get five Percent back on wholesale clubs but I Know what the Chase Freedom Flex card it Is not accepted at Costco because it is A MasterCard and Costco only likes visa And any one of their cards so I believe If you use this at something like Sam's Club instead you can still get five Percent back all right next card here The AmEx Gold Card easy one here but Anything regarding food this should be Your card of choice The Only Exception Is first of the month use your built MasterCard where you can earn about 6X Back on dining instead next card here is The Chase Sapphire preferred this is Going to be a great option to earn high Rates on dining and groceries just in Case the restaurant says we do not take MX all right that just happened to your Boy at the fall restaurant again I don't Get why they gotta do that it's not Really that much that they're dealing With they just want to save a little bit More but okay I get it on top of that The Chase app I preferred is going to
