Maximizing the 5% cash back would be $6,000 of spend. I go up to this in my Citi Dividend. Keep in mind that cash is redeemed in $50 increments, so watch the rounding. BB's limit is $5k per month, so obviously not over that.

Other limits that come into play are your credit limit and normal patterns of spend.
