In-Depth Credit Card Review |
This online card application is intended for residents of the United States only. For other country options, please refer to the right hand menu bar.
The SimplyCash® Business Card from American Express is designed for those with very good credit and who plan to take advantage of the cash back reward program.
Cardholders have access to the cash back reward program for no additional fee. Through the reward program, cardholders earn a 4% rebate on office supplies and wireless servcies (certain restrictions apply), a 3% rebate on automobile gas, and they earn a 1% rebate on all other purchases. Rebates are automatically credited to the cardholder's statement each month, and there is no limit to the amount of cash back that can be earned.
The card has no annual fee, and it has a very low interest rate for purchases and balance transfers. Cardholders can also take advantage of the 0% introductory rate on purchases for up to twelve months and the 7.99% introductory rate on balance transfers for the life of the loan on balance transfers submitted during the first six months.
As with all business credit cards issued by American Express®, cardholders will be able to take advantage of various additional services and benefits. Some of the benefits include travel accident insurance, purchase protection, and special discounts from select retailers.
Therefore, those who plan to make qualified purchases to receive the 5% rebate, would like the option to carry a balance, and will take advantage of the introductory offers will benefit most from what the SimplyCash® Business Card from American Express has to offer.
Most Attractive Feature: No annual fee; unlimited cash back; 0% introductory rate.
Least Attractive Feature: Restrictions apply to which purchases receive the 5% rebate; not all applicants may qualify for the lowest rate offered.
