Midas is a global auto service franchise with around 1,200 U.S. locations specializing in exhaust, brakes, tires, suspension, and routine maintenance. Most Midas franchisees code transactions as auto services on Visa, Mastercard, and Amex networks, which typically falls outside dedicated rewards categories on consumer cards.

Big-ticket brake jobs and exhaust work often run $500 to $1,500, which is enough to make MID category selection worthwhile on cards like Citi Custom Cash when auto services is the top monthly category. U.S. Bank Cash+ also offers wider auto categories. For everyday simplicity, the Wells Fargo Active Cash and Citi Double Cash pay a clean 2 percent on every Midas invoice.
