Ink Business Cash Credit Card

The Ink Business Cash is Chase's entry-level business card, and its appeal comes down to one number: 5% back at office supply stores and on internet, cable, and phone services, which earns real money for a business whose costs are mostly software and shipping. The catch is the $25,000 annual cap on those categories, so a high-revenue business will outgrow it quickly. Pair it with a Sapphire or Ink Preferred, though, and that flat cash back converts into transferable Ultimate Rewards, which is where the math starts to favor you.
