The best cards to pay off your taxes with

These bonus reward points translate into a big number of flying miles which will save you a good amount during your travel. Considering these points are worth a lot, it is worth paying a small charge towards availing it.
The Chase Freedom and Citi Dividend cards offered by JP Morgan Chase and CitiGroup Inc respectively are two other credit cards that can be used for paying taxes. Both these cards offer cash back of up to $100. If the card holder spends $500 within the first 90 days of getting the card they also stand to win the $200 sign up bonus. In addition to this, card holders can also enjoy 1 percent cash back whenever they use the card, including paying taxes. In case the customer uses this card to make a tax payment of $500, they will have to pay back at most $11.75 or 2.35 percent of it. However, they also stand to gain a cash back of $5 in addition to the $200 sign up bonus which translates into a lot of money.
