When a card is worth it
The fee usually beats the reward, except when it unlocks a sign-up bonus. Example: someone who already puts $1,000 a month on a card could pay 2 tax payments of $1,000 by card for about $46 in fees, reach the Chase Sapphire Preferred bonus, and keep about $609 after fees and the annual fee. Then switch back to the bank account. Run your own numbers.
Watch out for
Credit cards are not accepted for amended return payments, and card payments cannot be cancelled once submitted.
