I recently added the Capital One Venture X Business to my wallet with the new two tier offer. I added this card to my wallet principally because I have some big end of year expenses which will allow me to hit the $30k spend in 3 months that the first tier of this offer requires. The second tier is ridiculous and, even if I could hit it, I’d rather push my spend on to other cards/offers than concentrate it all here. With that all said… shortly after getting approved my account was targeted to receive some massive referral bonuses…100k per new business, capped at 500k per year. As always, you’re welcome to leave your referrals down below.

Basically, this card is the same as the personal Venture X, and I’ll start pivoting most of my business spend on to it even after hitting the min spend requirement.

We keep an up to date spreadsheet that lists the best ever offers: You can find that spreadsheet here.

Historically 80k is a very, very good offer and hit in both 2022 and 2023. In 2021, we saw the offer hit an all time high of 100k. Who knows if that will ever come back.

Main Cast: 

Cards that earn flexible points and should be used on the bulk of your purchases.

Supporting Cast:

Cards that earn fixed points in the currency of the airline/hotel and can not be transferred at attractive rates. These cards yield benefits that make it worth keeping, but not necessarily worth putting a lot of your everyday spend on. 

The Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card is great starter card and offers transferrable Ultimate Rewards, and pairs well with other Chase cards.

If you carry this card alongside Chase’s cashback cards like the Chase Freedom Flex®  and Chase Freedom Unlimited® or the business versions: Chase Ink Business Cash® ,  Chase Ink Business Unlimited® you can combine the points into the Sapphire Preferred account and transfer into hotel and airline partners

Annual fee remains quite low at $95 a year and it has great bonus categories and useful statement credits that not only enhance your travel, but help offset the annual fee.

One thing that is a bummer is Chase lowered the transfer ratio to World of Hyatt from 1:1 to 4:3.
