Rewards & Value

Metric	Capital One Venture Business	Jeff Bank Business Zero+ Card
Base earn rate	Unlimited 2 miles per $1 on every purchase. No category tracking, no published annual cap. Same earn structure on legacy Spark Miles and live Venture Business.	Not advertised. Jeff Bank Business Zero+ page and Elan Business Zero+ description disclose only 5% on prepaid Travel Center bookings. Treat everyday earn as not offered / $0 unless Program Rules say otherwise. Do not import Cash Preferred’s 3%/1%.
Welcome bonus	Live Venture Business (Sept. 3, 2026): 100,000 miles after $10,000 in first 3 months. Product-page footnote: may not be available for existing or previous Capital One Business card holders. Offer expiration date not dated on the live product page.	None advertised as of Sept. 3, 2026. Do not attach Business Cash Preferred’s limited-time $350 cash-back promo to this SKU.
Redemption value	Issuer marketing treats miles as 1¢ each for Capital One Business Travel and cover-travel redemptions (request within 90 days). Cash/gift-card value is lower and varies / subject to change (business FAQ). Do not assume 1¢ for cash. Transfers not assumed unless the user picks a partner.	Cash-back product at face value via statement credit or deposit to an eligible Jeff Bank checking/savings account. No transfer partners. Page copy saying no cap on points is leftover template language on a cash-back SKU. Do not treat 5% as travel MCC spend.

Pros & Cons

Capital One Venture Business

Pros

• Unlimited 2X miles with no category caps, plus 5X on Capital One Business Travel hotels/cars and 15+ transfer partners
• $0 FTF and free employee cards
• $50 travel + $50 ads/software credits can offset the $95 fee if used
• Global Entry/TSA PreCheck up to $120 every 4 years
• Live 100,000 / $10,000 / 3-month bonus is richer than the last Spark Miles 50k / $4,500 offer

Cons

• $95 fee with no year-1 waiver on the live SKU
• No 0% intro APR; BTs not available; purchase APR 24.49% variable
• No lounge access; 5X travel is portal hotels/cars only — not flights, not direct bookings
• Ads/software credit is MCC-fragile
• Spark Miles closed; existing holders must re-apply (no product change) to get new credits and may lose the bonus

Jeff Bank Business Zero+ Card

Pros

• $0 annual fee on the official product page (Sept. 3, 2026)
• 0% intro APR for 18 billing cycles on purchases and on BTs made within 558 days — among the longer publicly advertised business 0% windows
• Free additional employee cards on Jeff Bank’s business-card feature list
• 5% + $50/card credit if the firm actually prepays travel in the Elan Travel Center
• Cell-phone protection up to $600 when the bill is paid with the card; once-a-year 3-month $0 ExtendPay after intro ends

Cons

• No advertised everyday earn rate — a poor daily driver versus 1.5–2% no-fee business cards
• Full Schumer box not on the Jeff Bank page (BT fee, CA fee, late/overlimit/penalty APR must be pulled from the terms link)
• 3% FTF is the Elan business-family standard
• Go-to APR 16.24%–25.24% makes leftover balances costly after the intro
• Personal guarantee / hard-pull details unpublished; $50 credit requires $5,000 portal travel per card

Verdict

Capital One Venture Business

New applicants see Venture Business, not Spark Miles. Existing Spark Miles accounts stay on the old product ($0 year-1 then $95; GE/PreCheck only among this pair’s credits; no $50 travel or ads/software unless they separately apply). Do not mix with VentureOne (1.5X, $0) or Venture X Business ($395, NPSL, lounges). Skip it for 0% float, no-PG underwriting, or anyone who will revolve at 24.49%.

Jeff Bank Business Zero+ Card

Same Elan Visa Business Zero+ SKU as First Federal’s cobrand, branded for Jeff Bank (Sullivan/Orange Counties, NY). It is not the consumer Jeff Bank Zero+ (21 cycles / 4% / $15) and not Business Cash Preferred ($350 / 3%/1%). Buy as a no-fee 0% float tool; pair with a flat cash-back card for everyday spend. Open the Jeff Bank terms link before quoting BT/CA fees.
