Not life-changing, but at least I think this could be marginally helpful if you, for some reason, maybe don't meet the spend threshold that month, but you otherwise would earn it, then at least maybe you get something for your rent or mortgage payments that month.

I will say generally, I hate cards that don't let you have the cash back option because there's so many people who, for whatever reason, can't travel.
