The way these points work is the companies whether Cabela's ,the airlines etc sell these points to the credit card companies and you get the points from the credit card companies. The credit card co. then use those points for advertising and getting people to use their cards. This is a very big money maker for all involed. Some co. like the airlines and motor manufactures make more on these than they do on there products.
As long as we pay our bill every month without fail we win too.
