Conclusion
This offer is about as good as it gets for big spenders. If you are able to reach the high spending threshold you will be earning at least 6% back on your next $50,000 in business spend. That is $3,000 you can plug back into your business for simply spending money you were going to spend anyway.
If you value the new airline partners at all then the Miles card may be the way to go. You are able to squeeze a little more value out of the points if you get at least 1.5 cents per airline mile. Plus that card has some extra 5x earning options.
