A quick look at the cards show that they have very strong sign up offers, the BMO Rewards Business Mastercard matches the personal version with a 35,000 point sign up bonus worth $250 towards travel via BMO Rewards along with the first year annual fee waived. What the Business version lacks and this is surprising since it is a travel card is the Priority Pass benefit like the personal card has. Overall, unless you really need the business tracking and optional employee card option or don't need the Priority Pass you are better off going with the personal version.
For the CashBack card, same thing, strong initial offer of 6% back on select purchases for 4 months but once your outside of that the card is relatively weak compared to lots of other cards. Once again unless you really need the business tracking and optional employee card option o you are better off with other non-business cards that are way more rewarding.
Finally on the AIR MILES side, they have two new cards for businesses, an annual fee version and a no annual fee card. The annual fee card is strong not only on the initial sign up bonus of up to 3,000 miles and first year free but it also earn 1 miles for every $10 spend meaning it matches the best personal AIR MILES card out there. However it does not offer the 15% off AIR MILES flights in North America like the personal card. The no-fee version is much like the personal no-fee version with a 500 mile sign up bonus.
