The Strategist analyzes your business spend across every card, every vendor, every category. It finds the routing no one told you about and builds a 12-month game plan that compounds quarter over quarter.
Every vendor MCC code. Every card combination. Every routing permutation. The Strategist exhausts every possibility and ranks them by real-dollar return for your specific business.
Every strategy the Strategist builds for your business optimizes across four dimensions simultaneously. Weighted to your industry, your vendors, your goals.
Card routing rules matched to your actual vendor mix. Google Ads at 3x through Ink Preferred. SaaS subscriptions at 3x. Wholesale at 2x through Blue Business Plus (most bonus cards earn 1x on wholesale MCC codes like 5099). The Strategist recalculates monthly as your spend shifts.
Team conferences, client meetings, recruiting trips. The Strategist monitors award availability for your specific routes and dates. Transfer 200K UR to Hyatt for 5 nights at a property costing $485 per night in cash. That is $2,425 your travel budget keeps.
Annual fee vs. points earned vs. redemption value. The Strategist calculates the net return on every card in your stack and tells you which ones are paying for themselves and which are dead weight. Monthly portfolio valuation included.
Every strategy session teaches your team something. Why routing Sysco through Blue Business Plus catches 2x when other bonus cards earn 1x on wholesale. Why splitting SaaS subscriptions across Ink cards captures 3x. The Strategist makes your finance team dangerous.
Vendor MCC codes that kill bonus rates. Employee card timing windows. Spend routing gaps worth thousands per year.
Sysco and US Foods code as wholesale (MCC 5099/5199), earning 1x on most bonus cards. The Strategist maps every vendor to its actual MCC code and routes spend to the card that captures the highest rate.
Employee cards count against 5/24 for Chase applications. The Strategist tracks every team member and identifies windows for high-value signup bonuses like the Ink Preferred at 100K UR.
Your $14K per month in Google Ads earns 3x on Ink Preferred (MCC 7311). Your $3K in SaaS earns 3x. But your $8K in miscellaneous earns 1x on a generic card. The Strategist splits spend to capture every multiplier.
Is the $695 Amex Platinum paying for itself through the airline credit, Uber credit, and lounge access for your 3 traveling team members? The Strategist calculates the net return on every card fee and recommends keeps, cancels, and downgrades.
Ink Preferred first (100K UR, 3x on ads). Then Amex Business Gold (4x on top 2 auto-selected business categories). Then Blue Business Plus (2x on everything, no annual fee). The order matters. The Strategist builds the 12-month application calendar.
E-commerce: 2.2x to 2.8x blended. Restaurants: 1.8x to 2.2x. HVAC and contractors: 1.6x to 2.0x. The Strategist benchmarks your portfolio against your industry and closes the gap.
