The Capital One Spark Cash Plus replaced the older Spark Cash business card, with the primary difference being that the Spark Cash Plus is a charge card. The charge card features means that the Capital One Spark Cash Plus can be more easily used for bigger purchases and by companies with very high monthly spend, without bumping up against a credit limit for your business expenses.
You earn 2% cash back on all eligible purchases, plus 5% when you book hotels and rental cars through the Capital One Travel Portal.
If you have a separate credit card that earns Capital One Miles, like the Venture X, Venture, VentureOne, or Spark Miles, you can transfer your cash from the Capital One Spark Cash Plus to those cards, making them Capital One Miles – transferable to airline and hotel partners. $10 = 1,000 Miles.

The Capital One Quicksilver Cash Rewards Credit Card is perfect for someone that wants a simple cash back card (no need to remember which card to use for which bonus category and does a lot of international travel. While the Citi Double Cash card earns 2% cash back on everything, the Double Cash carries a foreign transaction fee of 3% of your purchase.
With Quicksilver, you will never pay any foreign transaction fees or annual fees, and you’ll earn a simple 1.5% cash back on everything. If you book travel via the Capital One Travel portal, you’ll earn 5% on hotels and rental cars (1.5% if booked outside of Capital One Travel).
Plus, you’ll get a small cash bonus when you meet the terms of the Early Spend Bonus with your new Quicksilver card.
PRO TIP:
If you have another credit card which earns Capital One Miles, like the Capital One Venture X, Capital One Venture, Capital One VentureOne, or Capital One Spark Miles for Business, you can transfer your cash from your Quicksilver to those cards, turning them into Capital One Miles – transferable to airline and hotel partners. $10 = 1,000 Miles.
