Verdict
Our Pick: Amazon Prime Visa
With a 4.4/5 rating, the Amazon Prime Visa edges out the Blue Cash Everyday from American Express (4.3/5). No annual fee makes it easy to justify. The Amazon Prime Visa is a must-have for Prime members. 5% back at Amazon and Whole Foods with no annual card fee makes it the best way to save on purchases you're already making. Just factor in the $139/year Prime membership as the real cost.
