Surely must be better than any mileage card?
What are your thoughts?
The ideal card would be a 5% cash back with 0% APR for 12 months or so. Only decent alternative is the SPG AMEX intro offer 15,000 bonus for first 15,000 spent. (I.e. 2 SPG points for the first 15,000)
There's a card which gives close to 5% not only for 12 months, but 24 months. That is the citi amex platinum card which gives 3 to 5 points per dollar. 1 point is close to 1.5 cents and given that, this card gives 4 to 5% easily.
