Free (base plan, no annual fee), flat 1.5% cash back on everything, no personal guarantee, and the expense/receipt automation and accounting sync are the best in the category. The catch: it's a charge card (pay in full monthly, no revolving credit) and underwriting generally wants roughly $25k sitting in a linked US business bank account.\n\n**BILL Divvy** - the no-personal-guarantee option if you *don't* have a big cash balance. No annual fee, strong card-level budget controls, available to sole proprietors, and underwritten with a soft credit pull rather than a cash-balance minimum. Rewards are weaker than Ramp's unless you pay weekly.\n\n**Brex** - if you're venture-backed or scaling fast. Better rewards for that profile (points multipliers on travel, software, dining, rideshare) and high limits, but the daily card effectively requires equity funding or ~$500k+ in annual revenue, so it's a poor fit for a typical Main Street business.\n\n**Chase Ink Business Cash** - the one I'd name if you actually want *credit* (revolving balance, build business credit history) rather than a charge card.
