I’m a buyer at this level.

Currently I use a Ink Business Preferred for Monkey Miles expenses, and concurrently hold an Ink Business Cash for another Business that I own. The great thing is Chase will allow me to get another Ink Cash for my other business. Additionally, as long as I’m under 5/24, and haven’t received a Chase Ink Cash bonus in the last 24 months, I should earn the bonus for this card. It’s worth noting that if you currently hold the card and wish to get a second, you’ll need to do so with either a different EIN, or if you have one with an EIN, use your social as a sole proprietor. Here’s the details on the new public offer for the Chase Ink Cash.

If you already hold an Ink Business Preferred its worth mentioning that even though you’d only earn 3x points on the bill, it does include free cell phone insurance which I’m willing to sacrifice the 2 extra points per month to get free of charge.

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® is exceptional 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: Ink Business Cash® , Ink Business Unlimited® you can combine the points into Preferred account and transfer into hotel and airline partners

Annual fee is quite low at $95 a year + you get a 10% anniversary bonus on points + $50 hotel credit in Chase travel.

    So if I have the Chase Ink Business Plus card ($95 annual fee), would it make sense to sign up for the Ink Biz Cash Card to get the bonus and then cancel the Plus card? As long as I have a Ink Biz Preferred premium card, I will still be able to convert by points earned on Biz Cash card into UR (as opposed to cash back only option if I didn’t have a premium card). Plus I save on the annual fee and get an additional benefit of 2x points on restaurants with the Cash card, which the Plus card doesn’t offer. Just curious your thoughts Miles. PS love the blog 🙂

    Are you sure that’s the case? I have 2 bizs with 2 eins in different states and I was able to get both bank bonuses. However, was told the card was once per ssn.

      Anon – You can only get one per EIN/Social Security Number…I’ll update to clarify.

      • Anon March 26, 2018

        Thanks Miles. So you’re saying I can get one with my EIN and another with my personal SSN as sole prop to get 2 that way?
        But if I have 2 eins I could also still get 1 per ein? And possibly a 3rd as sole prop assuming under 5/24?

        • Miles March 26, 2018

          That’s my understanding, but watch out for Chase’s application rules. 2 per 30 days.
