Does it look bad if you keep getting 0% cards?

    If you don't BT, but you spend on the card, they make fees from the merchant.

    Unless you pose a credit risk (too exposed with too much credit for example), they'll still want you to have the card as they are still making a lot from you.

    Is it the bank that make money though, or Visa/Mastercard (on merchant fees)?

    I believe everyone gets a slice of the pie - incentive to get the banks to push them down your throat, and why some give you cashback.
