App-o-Rama - 24 New Credit Card Apps
Well, I finally got my list put together and on the 7th of March I started early and applied for 24 credit cards. Quite an interesting process. I did download and use the trial version RoboForm. It filled in most of the repetitious info on all the apps, although I had to read through it carefully to erase incorrect entries - such as repeating my name and info in the spot for every additional card.
I have included links to the pages where I started the application process. None of them are sponsored links for this site. Those that CardOffer.com will pay you are linked to the CardOffer.com page for the card. If all the cards are approved I will receive $568 from CardOffer.com
The Reward column lists offers by the credit card company either in gift cards, credits to your statement, or redeemable points. If approved for all the cards I will end up with $315 in gift cards and credits as well as 90,000 points, which can be worth up to $900 but probably more like $500.

In my next post I will discuss the process of filling out the applications and the what approvals I have received so far. I received a number of instant approvals, no instant declinations, and a whole lot of “watch your mailbox” responses.
