I was wondering… I have no debt at all right now. I use two different credit cards with rewards, and I pay them off every month. However, sometimes I get offers from credit cards with attractive features, such as the MyPoints or Amazon credit cards that give free gift certificates if I sign up.
I was wondering if signing up for these credit cards and using them rarely, or not at all, would hurt my credit rating, or if it would look good to have more cards with open credit.
Thanks for your help!
