For discussion prior to April 2018, see this archived thread.
Q. Where can I learn more about the annual free-night certificate associated with this card? How long are the certificates good for? Are the certificates revoked if you cancel your Chase card?
A. See Annual Free Night Cert from IHG (Rewards Club) Visa / Mastercard.
Q. Once I meet the spending requirement, how soon will I receive my bonus points?
A. Bonus points typically accrue at the close of the billing period in which you incur the corresponding charges. Points should appear in your IHG account within a few days thereafter.
NOTE: If you complete your required spending in the last 7-10 days of the statement period, the bonus may not post until the following month's statement, even if the regular per-dollar points post on the first statement. This is normal behavior for Chase and is not worth a phone call.
Q. Can I apply for this card and earn the bonus after doing so previously?
A. For answers to these and other questions, see the wiki and related discussion in the master discussion thread https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/chase-ultimate-rewards/2016194-applying-chase-business-cards-april-2020-onward.html
Q. Will the signup bonus count toward Spire Elite status?
A. No.

Good for now, however the text says 125k points without mention of the FN, but hoping that it's attached in the backend.

IHG Premier Referral Link - No mention of 1 Free Night
I was gonna use my spouse's referral link to apply for the IHG Premier Card. But that shows only the 125k points & no mention of 1 Free Night as SUB. Any one had success in getting the 1 Free Night Cert as SUB using a referral link?

I tried to find a referral link with the free night for SOs card but never found one, so we just went without the referral.

IHG Rewards Premier Card PLTN Upgrade
0 pts
It looks like IHG is treating my new card as an upgrade even though my Select card is still active and I applied directly from Chase (not using a referral or affiliate link). I met the $3000 spend in this statement period so if I do not get the bonuses after the close of the statement next week, I guess I will need to chat with Chase and hope for the best. I did take screen shots of the offer when I applied so hopefully I will get the bonuses in the end.

I also have the select card and I think I am not going to get the sign up bonus for the premier card automatically (approved 1/31). No spending tracker at all online or in either the iPhone or the Android app, and my IHG account shows this:

There's a registration page on the IHG site that you have to use: https://www.ihg.com/content/us/en/de...-offers/united
I just registered, and $25 instantly appeared in my TravelBank with an 18 month expiration on it (i.e. September 2023). I assume every 6 months or so another $25 will show up. Pretty straightforward and for me makes this card a real no-brainer (it was anyway, to be honest).

Registered and $25 showed up right away with 18 months expiration date. I remembered reading it somewhere that the credits are use-it-or-lose-it (a la Amex credit)? 18 months expiration would surely make them useful for more people.

A number of people are reporting registration failures. Would it be worthwhile to compare the entry URL that people are using? I believe I used www.ihg.com/united, as dw reported in https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/34103652-post454.html. I had seen other URLs, but hadn't tried any others.
