Base cashback on everyday spend, from each issuer’s page or a comparison site, checked on November 2, 2026.
One business account for your entire operation.
The calculator applies Altitude’s rate to your yearly spend in each tier: 2% on travel, 1.5% on cloud, AI and SaaS, and 1% on everything else. It then applies the cashback rates that business cards in your country publish to the same total spend. The extra is the difference against your current card’s cashback, which starts at the average of those rates (in the United States, a typical business card’s 1.25%) and which you can change. The breakdown also shows the comparison with the best published card. Spend and cashback are a year.
It compares with business credit, charge, and debit cards from banks and card issuers that publish a cashback rate in your country. The calculator uses each card’s base rate on everyday spend, from the issuer’s own page or a comparison site. Your current card’s rate starts at their average (in the United States, a typical business card’s 1.25%), and you can set your own.
Travel covers flights, hotels, rail, car rental, and cruises. A purchase counts by the merchant’s card category. Cloud, AI and SaaS covers the cloud, AI, and software merchants listed in the cashback terms.
Cashback is paid monthly into your card balance no later than 15 days after month-end. It accrues on settled, qualifying purchases.
