Under 5/24 and will stay that way, suggestions?
I'm asking for suggestions for someone who doesn't open more than 4 personal cards every two years.
I have a lot of Chase cards already and can't do CSR/CSP bonus so maybe it's time to branch out to the biggest bonuses? Don't have to limit myself to Chase cards

What are you looking to get out of the cards? Points, miles, ongoing rewards from everyday spending? I usually check Doctor of Credit every month for ideas. I like the Bank of America bonus, which includes a credit for Global Entry. If you travel, the Chase Southwest cards have a 100,000 point intro bonus right now and it's highly churnable. I've been on 20+ trips on Southwest points alone.
Sorry, I forgot to say. I'm looking for travel benefits, but so far the hotels are not super attractive since I tend to stay in cheaper ones
So let's go maximum miles route. Above like 2K-3K over 3 months spend I know how to MS at 3%, haven't researched better ways
I don't fly southwest much and the CSP just got me the global entry perk recently so it's not a consideration
You stay in cheaper hotels on purpose? I've churned Chase IHG cards several times, and sometimes the intro bonuses are insane, like enough points for 7 nights. Aside from the cards I mentioned, I don't know much about airline cards. Delta bonuses can be pretty good but the miles don't go nearly as far as Southwest. But yeah, Doctor of Credit is a great resource regardless.
I stay in them because they are closer to where I want to go in city. Usually the Mariotts are closer to the center and that's not always where I want to go
IHG might work
Edit: I just went ahead and applied for the IHG card, thanks
Hey, I am looking for another travel credit card. I found out that paying taxes is only 1.75% fee so technically it's profitable to go for the bigger bonuses
