Best credit card to use at Whole Foods Market.

Groceries

Whole Foods Market is Amazon's premium grocery arm, with about 530 U.S. stores. Pricing is higher than at mass-market supermarkets, which makes a strong grocery-category card more valuable per visit. The standout here is the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa: it earns 5% at Whole Foods (with a Prime membership), which is the strongest non-promotional grocery rate available. Without Prime, fall back to whichever 3-6% supermarket card you carry.
