================================================== ==================================
Additionally: For those who may be automatically excluded due to 5/24, the in-branch Business Rep can submit the application by Mail on your behalf (this avoids the application going through the computer check that would automatically exclude those who are already at 5/24.) First year's annual fee is not waived.

1) Should I apply using the link above or go to a nearby brick and mortar branch?
Sometimes there are better offers to be had in the branch (as referenced above). Some in-branch apps had/have the $95 AF waived 1st yr (ymmv). You can also have your banker check to see if you are pre-approved for this card (green screen on the banker's log in). However, it is likely simpler/easier to do a Chase business credit application Online as applying in-branch often requires providing documentation (proof of business, etc).
2) How do the rewards differ from other INK cards?
The bonus categories on this card are different than other cards in the INK family, notably, this card does NOT get a bonus at Office Supply stores, but DOES get the following:
3 Points per $1 on the first $150,000 spent in combined purchases in the following categories each account anniversary year:
- Travel; including airfare, hotels, rental cars, train tickets, and taxis

4) Can I product change from a different INK Card?
Since this card is newly released, options may change in the future, but, at this time, Chase is not permitting product change to Ink Preferred at this time (reported on 11/23/16).

Is what not even necessary?
Depending on the business structure selected, ownership of the business isn't a requirement per se, but you must meet the requirements set forth under "Certifications" on the application form in order to apply for the card.

It isn't clear Chase includes qualified joint ventures in their definition of sole proprietorship - they may, they may not. But even if Chase accepts spouse qualified joint ventures as "Sole Proprietorship", the OP's wife can't use that option as they haven't set their business up to meet the qualified joint venture exception (among other things, OP and wife are filing separately). OP should consult an accountant if the two wish to pursue a filing as a qualified joint venture for IRS purposes.

Dramatic news today : Plastiq no longer codes as 3X with the CIP
Any idea on how to take advantage of the CIP ? Have you tried purchasing GC with the CIP at USPS ?

How many Chase Ink Preferred Cards can you have?
I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer for. I have two new LLC's starting up. Can I apply for two separate Ink Business cards and collect the bonus twice?

Assuming each LLC has its own unique Tax ID number, then yes you can. I would still space the apps out by 60-90 days, just to avoid any application velocity concerns from Chase.

New chase ink business preferred
I was approved today. The bank manager says he’ll get it fed ex’ed to house.
I need to to pay $1200 for tree service. The owner wanted me to write him check but agreed to get check from plastiq. Plastiq will take several days to process. I’d like to pay tree service guy quicker than that.
can I get help with suggestions for other options to pay the tree guy but still put it on the Ink?

Is the 100K in-branch offer with a BRM still happening? Or was that a limited time only? Headed to a city with branches next weekend and would like to know what to expect.

Can my wife add me as an AU (on Ink Cash card) even though I am not an employee of hers?
