Our take

The Quicksilver is about as simple as cash back gets: an unlimited 1.5% on every purchase with no annual fee, plus 5% on hotels and rental cars booked through Capital One Travel. New cardholders can earn a $200 bonus after $500 in spending within 3 months, a low bar, and a 15-month 0% intro APR on purchases and balance transfers adds real value for a big purchase or a debt payoff. That combination earns it the #5 spot on our Best Cash Back Credit Cards list. The catch is that 1.5% is a modest flat rate, so if you want the most from everyday spending, a card with stronger categories or a higher flat rate will beat it. Price Drop Protection and the Price Match Guarantee on Capital One Travel bookings are minor extras, and no foreign transaction fee makes it an easy card to take abroad.
