U.S. Bank Business Triple Cash Rewards Visa

Rewards by category

Our take

The U.S. Bank Business Triple Cash Rewards Visa fits a business whose spending clusters in four places: dining, gas, phone and internet service, and office supplies, all earning 3% cash back with no annual fee. That footprint covers most of a small operation's recurring bills, and it shows in SwipeCaddy's rankings, where the card sits third for office supplies and fifth for phone and internet.

The tradeoff is everything outside those four categories, which earns the 1% base rate. There is no sign-up bonus to chase and no listed perks doing quiet work in the background, so the card's entire case rests on those 3% rates. The good news is the fine print stays out of the way: none of the four bonus categories carries a listed cap or activation requirement, and rewards are plain cash back valued at a straightforward one cent.

In a small wallet, treat it as the specialist. Route dining, gas, phone and internet, and office supplies here, and let a flat-rate card handle the rest, since 1% is a thin floor for general spending. Because the annual fee is $0, there is no break-even math to run; the card only has to out-earn whatever it displaces on those four categories.

The math

Run $250 a month of hotels through this card and you're earning about $150 a year at our conservative valuations. There's no annual fee to earn back — everything above the 1% base rate is pure upside.

Where it lands in our rankings: #4 for office supplies · #5 for phone & internet
