This is one of the most common questions I get from people just starting out with points and miles.

But here’s what most people don’t know:

📊 65% of your credit score comes from:
✔️ Paying your bills on time
✔️ Keeping your balances low

Opening new cards doesn’t hurt your score when you’re using them responsibly—and it can actually help improve your credit over time.

That’s how I’ve opened multiple cards and still maintained an excellent score.

The key?
✅ Responsible use
✅ Smart tracking
✅ Staying organized

Swipe through to learn:
👉 What really impacts your credit score
👉 Why new cards aren’t as risky as they seem
👉 How this all fits into earning travel rewards the smart way

Stop overpaying for Delta flights with SkyMiles. Here’s how to fly Delta using fewer points—without using Delta miles.

This is one of the best redemptions in the points and miles world—yet most travelers don’t even know it exists.

You can book Delta flights for as low as 12,500 points using Virgin Atlantic Flying Club or Flying Blue (Air France/KLM) instead of using Delta SkyMiles.

If you want to start earning the right points to book flights like this, DM me “DELTA” and I’ll help you figure out where to start.
