The Chase Ink Business Cash card earns 5% cash back (5x points if you have a Chase Sapphire card to transfer to) on purchases at office supply stores, including Staples — both in-store and online at Staples.com.

Tips

• Combine with portals: Some of these gift cards are also available through cash-back shopping portals, but the 5x at Staples is often the best or most reliable option.
• Check for promotions: Staples regularly runs promotions giving extra rewards (e.g., buy $300 in gift cards, get $15 off). Stacking these with 5x makes the deal even better.
• Ink Business Cash cap: The 5% category is capped at $25,000 in combined purchases per year at office supply stores and on phone/internet/cable services. Plan accordingly.
• Transfer to Chase Ultimate Rewards: If you pair the Ink Business Cash with a card that earns Chase Ultimate Rewards (like the Sapphire Preferred or Reserve), your 5% becomes 5x UR points — worth significantly more than 5 cents when transferred to airline and hotel partners.
