Spark Cash Select is Capital One's no-fee flat-rate business card. It pays unlimited 1.5% cash back on every purchase with no limits or category restrictions, and 5% on hotels and rental cars booked through Capital One Business Travel. New cardholders get a one-time $750 cash bonus after spending $6,000 in the first 3 months. The annual fee is $0, and the card charges no foreign transaction fees. Employee cards are free and owners can set customized spending limits. Cash back can be redeemed for any amount at any time and does not expire for the life of the account. Capital One lists excellent credit for the card. The weaker points are the rate, since Wells Fargo Signify pays 2% with no fee, and Capital One notes the bonuses may not be available to existing or previous Capital One business cardholders. It fits owners who buy from overseas suppliers or travel abroad and want simple cash back.
