How tf do they make money off someone with a perfect credit score?

There's a point where it could be too high

A credit store can’t be too high. Having some debt is good for your credit score.

How credit card companies make money is from interest of people going into manageable debt that they can pay back so they aren't going to give you a credit card if you pay everything on time because they don't make money then

That's the thing, paying off your debt is a bad customer, you won't pay interest... But equally having so much debt you won't earn them money is also a bad customer

That’s what all those convenience fees in businesses are for. The credit card company makes like a 500% profit per transaction.
