I think the $1500 max is a downer. Higher limit would be awesome.

If you are willing to spend a lot, the IT Miles might be better.   That's an uncapped 3% on everything in the first year (but on the flip side, no 5/10% categories)

Currently my spend is groceries ($1000+ month), gas and costco (mostly grocery that Publix doesn't get. I go in spurts between the two, lol). Amex is who is was thinking with $6000 cap. It would be awesome if disco put it up there to.

Amex's $6000 cap is per year = $1500 per quarter.

There's also Discover Deals. A shopping portal with great deals. Ongoing cashback offers from lots of retailers. No caps on those as far as I know. I have been using the 5% cashback on Walmart. That should be 10% on all online purchases first year without cap. Again I could be wrong but that's what it looks like to me.

I like the Discover It card fine...unfortunately Discover It does not like me enough to extend a 10k CL to me like all my other cards. I only use it for 5% catagories.

OP, you need to spend some time studying credit card rewards and get some perspective.  The Discover IT first year offer ($600 cash back on $6000 of spending) that you call a "downer" is one of the best offers in the industry.

Good point. Will add that the US Bank Cash+ also has categories and they are capped per quarter at $2000. Seems the OP needs to look at the credit card landscape.

Paging @themanwhocan (link in sig)

Hard to find another cc that can function as a cu card (5.99pct no fee for 18 mos BT) but generous limits and recurrent promo like 2nd yr 0pct apr or 2nd yr double cash back!

Yes, but there also differences.   Cash+ allows you to stick with categories.   With Discover (and Freedom etc) the issuer gets to choose the categories, so maxing out the $6000 can be hard.  (As can finding good Cash+ categories!).   And still a few uncapped ones, such as Chase Amazon: uncapped 5%.
