Not sure - I use 4 on a regular basis.

1. With cash back for Trader Joe's
1. For Travel Hotels with points 7 Costco
1. General purpose with AAirline miles (90%)
1 ATM card
1 credit line card.

Canceled 6 I don't use any more.

All are paid off each month.

A long time ago we learned not to buy what we can't pay for in 1 month. If
you use credit cards to finance purchases you'll pay 25% + extra for
purchases - I can't afford to do that.
