If you owe a lot of estimated taxes then you can do it quarterly, for most people, at least once a year

(Hint, you can overpay and get a refund pretty quickly, too )
The best times to get a card (or cards) for the SUB is just before you are ready to pay the tax.
e.g., if you pay in April, get the cards in early March, hit spend with tax in April and get refund by June
If you time it after the statement closes in April, you get ~60 days interest free and then about 30 days of coverage using a home equity line or savings
