Card Highlights
Chase IHG Rewards Premier Business Credit Card is a Credit Card
With a credit card, you can carry a balance and accrue interest if necessary. Note this is not advised by me. The points game does not work well, if you are carrying a balance and accruing interest. See #4 in Let’s Get Started To Earning Free Travel.
Card Rewards
Earn IHG One Rewards points with the card as a member of IHG One Rewards. Learn about IHG One Rewards here.
Sign-up Bonus
NOTE-This new cardmember bonus offer is not available to either (i) current cardmembers of this business credit card, or (ii) previous cardmembers of this business credit card who received a new cardmember bonus for this business credit card within the last 24 months.
Before you apply, make sure your ability to get the sign-up bonus is not limited by Chase restrictions on an additional sign-up bonus or the Chase 5/24 rule. Also be mindful of the unwritten 30 day application rule.

Receive A Free Night And Maybe Another
Receive 1 free night every year after your cardmember anniversary. Sadly, as of May 1, 2018, this free night is only redeemable at properties up to 40,000 IHG Rewards points. BUT, as of March, 2022, you have the ability to add on points from your Rewards account to redeem your Anniversary Free Night at hotels above the 40,000 point redemption level. This is a very nice change! And you can earn an additional Free Night after spending $60,000 on your card.
