"Despite brands' best efforts to get millennials to spend money in the manner of the generations before them, it isn't going as well as they'd like. That's why, as per a this Vox article, credit card companies are making it more difficult to earn rewards. Writer Chavie Lieber explains, "Banks offer patrons a line of credit with the expectation that they'll make money off interest rates when bills aren't paid on time or in full," and the way that this works with rewards programs, is that banks assume that people will sign up to get rewards, utilize the credit lines, but fail to pay their balances in full. But as credit card users have started to "game the system," by, uh, paying off their balances, credit card companies have gotten upset at their diminishing margins and begun to punish users by rolling back perks. In other words, get ready to start hearing about how millennials are killing credit card companies any day now." Source: NYLON
