U.S. Bank credit cards
Altitude Go is for people whose biggest everyday category is food. You earn 4X points on dining, takeout and restaurant delivery on your first $2,000 each quarter, and 2X at grocery stores, gas and EV charging stations, and on streaming. There is no annual fee. The caveat: the 4X rate is now capped each quarter, then dining earns 1X.

You earn 5% on your first $2,000 in combined eligible purchases in two categories you choose, 2% on one everyday category, and 1% on everything else. There is no annual fee. The caveat: the 5% rate stops at the quarterly cap, and you must select categories each quarter.
