Choosing a Business Credit Card

Does your business pay too much for its credit card? Too many businesses just settle for a basic credit card from their local bank. Those businesses end up paying too much interest or high annual fees. For the money you already give the bank, doesn't your business deserve better?

A smart business compares available credit card offers to find the card that best suits them. Just because you have a bank account just down the street, it doesn't mean you're stuck choosing from their credit cards. Check what the other banks have to offer.

First you should decide what is important to your business. Do you just want the lowest interest or do you want the best rewards? Analyze your credit card use to see what saves you the most money. Look at factors such as:

  • monthly credit card spending totals
  • average running balance
  • payment habits
  • where you spend the most


Those factors and more will determine which credit card type is right for your business:

Low Interest Business Credit Cards

If you keep a running balance on your credit card, a low interest rate should be top priority. Make sure that the card doesn't have a high annual fee that offsets the low interest rate. Also remember to check both the intro apr and the standard rate.

Cash Back Business Credit Cards

Get cash back on all your credit card purchases with a card offering this feature. Get a percentage discount everywhere you use these cards. Does your current business credit card give you 5 - 10% back on all your business expenses?

Airline Miles Business Credit Cards

If you need to travel you should consider a credit card that offers travel rewards. You can earn free flights or other rewards. These cards offer rewards for either a certain airline or for most major airlines.
