    Not sure. I have an Amex blue and I don't get cashback. I get points and then can redeem them for stuff. For example, on airline miles, you get about $1 for every $100 spent. Therefore, it costs about $30,000 to get a $300 plane ticket.

    Not a great deal, but it's better than nothing.

    I have Discover Platinum and get cash back, but only on purchases w/ certain vendors, like Wal-Mart (I get 10% back on purchases there)

    I have a chase rewards card.

    I get 5 points per dollar at gas, grocery and drug
    1 point everywhere else

    5,000 points ='s 50 bucks

    I got 250 bucks just for signing up.

    I have a green Amex cashback card. Every year I get a credit on my bill, so it is like real cash.

    AMEX - Blue Cash is highly rated. 5% on drugstore/gas/groceries, 1% everything else... but i think there's a limit? dunno...
