My credit report has about 40 entries. About 12 cards are currently active, and I use 4 or 5 of them in a given month.

I've never been rejected for a card because I have too many cards on my credit report. I have been rejected because I already had that card, or because I already had 3 or 4 cards with the same issuer.

So, for me, any card that has a good signup bonus, and is from an issuer that I haven't got a card with right now, is worth considering.

Keep a spotless payment record, and accurate income information. Good luck!
