No, but... If you the cash back was paid for the purchase of an item that you are deducting (such as a business expense), then you have to reduce the deducted amount by the cash back paid for that item. Cash back payments are not taxable for their own sake, because you had to purchase something to get them, so they are just like discounts on the items purchased.
