UPDATE: The $25 bonus is no longer available for this card but it’s still one of the best cash rewards credit cards [1] out there!

I keep the Best Cash Rewards Credit Cards [1] updated regularly. One of the cards added after it was first published was the TrueEarnings® Card from Costco and American Express [2].
