Expert sources for flat-rate vs. bonus category credit cards article
Suggested angles
Explain how flat-rate cards eliminate the complexity of category tracking for BestMoney readers who want straightforward rewards without mental accounting, using a specific scenario like a small business owner who values simplicity over optimization
Break down the mathematical threshold where bonus category cards become worth the effort—for example, noting that a customer needs to spend X amount in bonus categories monthly before the higher earning rate beats a 2% flat card
Address the hidden cost of bonus category cards that BestMoney readers often overlook: the annual fee, forgetting which categories earn bonus rates, and earning cash back on non-bonus purchases at lower rates, with concrete dollar examples
I can provide BestMoney readers with a decision framework that shows exactly which card type wins based on their spending patterns, using real spending data analysis.
