With owning a business, comes expenses. Real estate expenses, marketing expenses, technology expenses…they all add up and it’s crucial for accounting and tax purposes that you keep track of them. Having a business credit card can be a smart choice when it comes to tracking business expenses. However, not all business credit cards are created equal and every business owner must be responsible and accountable for every charge that is made.
Jonathan Roisman, a NextAdvisor.com content manager and contributing writer for the Baltimore Business Journal, shared 3 business credit card options to consider.
Best overall business card: Ink Cash Business Card
- Zero-percent introductory APR on purchases for 12 months.
- Five percent cash back on up to $25,000 per year worth of charges on office supplies, cable, Internet, and telecom services. In addition, you get two percent cash back on up to $25,000 worth of dining and purchases and one percent on everything else (with no limit).
