For people living in the states there are better deals to be had:

Multiple 2% cashback cards

Amazon prime - 5% off Amazon and Whole Foods purchases, but you have to be a prime subscriber

Robinhood gold -3% off anything for $60/year

Amex blue cash rewards - 6% off groceries(and gift cards bought at supermarkets) for $75 per year

Re the Amazon card, it used to be offered through Synchrony Bank (I think I got the name right). I had a lot of weird issues with them and their customer service was very difficult to get ahold of and were terrible once you did. I ended up canceling the card.

  • That’s the Amazon Store Card, which (at least used to) only works on Amazon.com.

    The Prime credit card is issued by Chase. I closed mine and stopped patronizing Amazon.com around the time Bezos started meddling with the Washington Post, so I may be out of the loop on how things work now.
