Who is this card good for?

This card is great for business owners who are looking for an effortless way to earn cash back. The fixed 2% cash back of Capital One Spark Cash takes the guesswork out of redeeming points for maximum value. Businesses that spend little on office supplies or travel related expenses will benefit here as there aren't bonus categories that cater towards those areas.

Earning rewards

With the Capital One Spark Cash you'll earn a fixed 2% cash back. You can also get employee cards at no additional cost and you'll earn 2% cash back on their spending as well.
