About

Hi, I'm Nathaniel

I've been earning bank bonuses and optimizing credit card rewards for years. Fat Stacks Academy is where I share everything I've learned — the strategies, the data points, and the tools I use to stay organized.

On YouTube I break down individual bonuses, share my application strategy, and show my real results. On this site you'll find detailed reviews of every active bonus, and Stacks OS — the tool I built to manage my own bonus rotation.
