CC point game going to change with Trumps 10% plan?

It has to right? I’m not a huge points guy but I do put a couple $100k on my business card so it adds up.

I will be surprised if CC companies voluntarily decide to do this and stop raking in boat loads of money.

It won't change anything because he can't do that with an EO.

Trump doesn’t have the ability to dictate CC rates. It will take congress.
I miss the old Republican Party before it picked up all the dumbass economic illiterate ideas of the far left.

Ill believe this happens when it happens. Seems ridiculous

Yeah, this is a terrible idea. Something the new mayor of New York would peddle as it sounds good on the surface.

This is one of the dumbest ideas I’ve heard. If you cap rates at 10% the CC companies just won’t lend to low credit borrowers. They aren’t going to lose money on it. It’s a shortsighted thought. You can have a house you can’t afford but no furniture for you!

It's really up to the issuing banks to decide as they are the ones who determine the risk to the borrower.
Chase, capital one etc.. would have to voluntarily lower the rates. Seems very unlikely unless Congress passes something.
If that were to happen I would see a dramatic decrease in the amount of credit issued as the risk would go up for banks.
What hilarious is that Trump just asked the courts to throw out the cap on late fees. Because he said it was illegal.
That one was much easier to do

CC companies do not lose on points. The amount of money they rake in from interests is truly remarkable. There is a reason why people don't think of Visa and Mastercard as 2 of the biggest monopolies in our country.

I'm guessing points will be severely devalued when this happens and/or big signing bonuses will disappear

Visa and Mastercard
Visa and MasterCard take 0 dollars of interest.
Rewards programs and interest is done by the issuing Bank.
Visa and MasterCard just collect the fee for the exchange. They don't issue credit or manage rewards points etc

You know how you are charged fees when using cards at stores etc. these fees have gone up. Alot of it pays for rewards.
