Cash Back Credit Cards
Given our connection to MilesTalk, we naturally prefer rewards credit cards ourselves. That’s because with rewards cards, when used correctly, the points can be worth much more than a penny each.
But we get it. Sometimes you just want to earn straight cash back and spend that cash back how you please.
The Best Cash Back Credit Cards
If you aren’t going to play the points game at all, we generally recommend either sticking with a super easy 2% cash back card like the Citi Double Cash Card or Fidelity Rewards Visa for personal use or the Spark Cash from Capital One or American Express Blue Business Cash Card for businesses.
However, there are cash back cards that come with various bonus categories and if you are willing to carry more than one card, you can also do even better than 2% by mixing a few cards.
Mixing More Than One Cash Back Credit Card
The Savor Rewards from Capital One offers 4% in dining and entertainment, as well as 2% in groceries and 1% everywhere else while the Blue Cash Everyday Card earns 3% cash back at US supermarkets for up to $6,000 in annual purchases and 2% cash back at US gas stations and certain US Department Stores.
All CashBack Credit Cards
We base our ratings below on the value of the points of each card multiplied by the amount of the bonus. Pretty simple!

Please note: The Estimated Rewards Value of an Ultimate Rewards point earned from this card assumes that you have a Chase Ink Preferred, Chase Sapphire Preferred, or Chase Sapphire Reserve as well, which allows portal redemptions worth 1.25 - 1.5 cents per point and the opportunity for even greater value with airline and hotel transfer partners. If you do not have one of these other Chase cards, points would be worth a flat 1 cent per point and this bonus would be worth exactly $750.

The Chase Freedom Flex is the evolution of the Chase Freedom card, long a staple of the Chase card portfolio.
0% APR Intro Offer:
0% Intro APR for 15 months from account opening on purchases and balance transfers, then a variable APR of 19.24% - 27.99%.
The Freedom Flex takes the best part of the Chase Freedom (rotating quarterly 5X bonus categories) and adds a ton of new features:
Chase Freedom Flex Earn Rate:
- 5X on travel when purchased through the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal*
- 5X on rotating quarterly bonus categories (max of $1,500 per quarter in spend; activation required – same as existing Freedom card)
- 5X on Lyft rides through March 2025
- 3X on dining (including takeout and delivery)
- 3X at drugstores
- 1X on everything else
(* Keep in mind, booking via the portal for hotels means that you won’t, in most cases, earn any hotel points / stay credits nor have any hotel elite status honored. For airlines, the fares are generally the same or similar, however, it does mean that you have to deal with Chase for changes instead of the airline directly – and that can be a big hassle.)
Instacart Benefits
- 3 free months of Instacart Express
- $10/quarter in statement credits
Note: Our rewards optimization calculator will count all travel on this card at 5X, but please note the limitations around that above.

With 4% cash back on dining, including takeout and delivery, 2% back on groceries, streaming, and gas, and no annual fee, our review is that the Altitude GO is a surprisingly strong card.
Card Features:
- 4% cash back on dining, including takeout and delivery
- 2% cash back on grocery stores and grocery delivery, streaming services and purchases at gas stations
- 1% cash back on everything else
- No annual fee
- No foreign transaction fees
- A one-time $15 streaming service credit after 11 months of streaming service purchases.
0% Intro APR for 12 Months on the Altitude GO card
0% Intro APR on purchases and balance transfers for the first 12 billing cycles. After that, a variable APR applies, currently 19.49% - 28.49%.
US Bank Altitude GO Credit Card Review
The bottom line is that 4% cash back on dining, including takeout, dine-in, and delivery, is extremely strong for a credit card without an annual fee. It compares to the Capital One Savor card, though that card carries an annual fee.
Beyond the 4% cash back on dining, the 2% and 1% categories aren't special, especially considering the Citi Double Cash earns 2% back on everything, all of the time. But we can't think of another card earning 4% back on dining without an annual fee.
This card is for people with a very strong credit profile. You should have a 720 or better FICO to apply for this card.

The Citi Double Cash® credit card is one of the "gold standards" in cash back cards.
This card earns a flat 2% cash back in a slightly different way.
You will earn 1% cash back twice: first when you make the charge, then when you pay. That's 2% total.
Cash back will be earned in the form of ThankYou Points, redeemable for cash or combinable with your other ThankYou points.
You can redeem your points directly for cash or you can convert Double Cash points to JetBlue. And if you have a Citi Premier or Citi Prestige, then you can also transfer them to Citi's participating travel loyalty programs at a 1:1 ratio, making this card worth a look for points and cash aficionados alike.
Balance Transfer Offer
0% intro APR on Balance Transfers for 18 months. After that, the variable APR will be 18.74% - 28.74%, based on your creditworthiness.
