Blue Cash Everyday
Blue Cash Everyday

Three percent at U.S. supermarkets, gas stations, and online retail — three of the most universal spending categories — with no annual fee. The cap of $6,000 per category per year is real but generous: that is $360 in cashback before the rate drops to 1%. Most households will hit one cap and not the other, and the rate still beats every flat-rate card in the meantime. The 2.7% foreign-transaction fee disqualifies it as a travel card; this is a card you use at home.
