Because the rewards aren’t necessarily attributable to any one expense (or to split them out proportionately would be a whole lot of work), I always book them to miscellaneous income.  I also include that income when I budget. 

Hope that helps,

Steve

The rebate isn't subtracted from each charge, but accumulates in the card account as "Reward Points" until I cash them in.  The amount is then credited to the card account as a payment.  Should such payments be recorded as income or as a negative expense?
