    Have you ever used Cardpointers? If so, can you please do a comparison video? Having hard time deciding between the two

    Appreciate that you did this video, fully showing off the app. I downloaded it a year or so ago, and balked at the security concern. Just looked at the site and it doesn't seem to have improved. I want more transparency or some auditing/certification by a trusted party. Also, your statement that they can't do things to your account, not sure where that comes from. Perhaps they won't, but again that's trust.

    How does Max rewards determine which Amex card it will add a Amex offer to? For example if I have an amex offer for a restaurant and it is available on multiple cards, I obviously want to activate it on my gold due to it's 4x multiplier. Will Mx rewards always pick the best choice?

    What good is this app if it does not support all my cards and it has issues setting up other cards, TD bank card NOT supported HSBC cards NOT supported and for some reason Capital one cards cannot be linked due to technical issues

    Can you set minimum payments when your balance is already 0 or happens to reach 0, and the reason is to avoid forgetting about the card?

    I could be missing something obvious but I don't understand how MaxRewards arrives at default point value. Why does it consider UR points at 1.25? I have a CSR which the app knows about so I would expect it to default at 1.5. And if it weren't considering what I have in my wallet, shouldn't it be 1.0?

    • @TheCreditShifu
      @TheCreditShifu  Před 3 lety

      1.25 I believe is just a standard value, you can go in and change it to what you value them at, depending on how you will spend them. But yeah that is something I can suggest to them, if CSR is in wallet, increase to 1.5

    Is there a way to track your annual credits (such as the annual travel credit)?

  • @kevjak357
    @kevjak357 Před 2 lety

    My only issue is that it will list a bank such as PenFed, but will then tell you it doesn't work with them when you try to connect your account

    I like the app I don't love it is missing pedal credit card and navy federal can't connect to your account so that's why don't give it 4 stars or 5 stars. I'm waiting for more cards to be added before I get gold account.

      I totally agree, but I might be a bit biased since I make CardPointers. Great to see extra coverage in this space though to let more people know that there are apps out there to help you make the most of your cards, their credits, and offers. Definitely recommend you try both apps out and see which one is a better fit for you.
