I have the credit card through Chase and the money racks up quickly for me.
You get 1% into the account for most purchases on the card and 3% for telecom type purchasees.

for example, I buy tickets for work and many other expensive things on the credit card, then get it expensed (even my cell phone bill which is 3-400 a month usually) and get 1% at least. Some months I've don 10,000 plus on the card and get 100 or more dollars in credit.

Thus I get a nice money dump each month from Chase in the acct.

I love the program.

Caveat: I did have one ticket which I purchased with the funds that had to be cancelled. the refund took 6 weeks to recredit.

Not as bad as a bill-me-later refund I needed that took nearly 3 months but other than that the program has worked great for me.
