The Ink Bold directly competes against AMEX PLAT business card but does not offer the $200 travel credit. Though the Priority Club lounge pass probably is more useful than the PLAT. Interesting is, the 25K on Ink Classic is earned via first purchase, versus the 50K on Ink Bold is earned via 3K spent... Seems to me the Classic actually a better deal for low to moderate spender as long as you also have a Sapphire Preferred as one can freely transfer UR pts among different cards. So I could transfer the Ink Classic points to the Sapphire Preferred account? I agree that the "first purchase" vs 3K spend is a big draw when I have other spending to work on. |

40K and no min. spend
Just received a 40K points offer in the mail for the INK CLASSIC card with no minimum spend and no annual fee. Has anyone seen a better offer with no min. spend?
I have the Chase Sapphire Pref. so I can combine the 40K with my existing UR points, right? This card has Priority Pass membership with first 2 visits free. I just received the Chase Marriott card a week ago so I'll probably wait until mid-Dec. to apply for this one. |
Yes, you can combine Ultimate Rewards points between different accounts, they do not even have to be yours. You can also transfer Ultimate Rewards points from separate accounts to the same partner account, such as United or Hyatt.

Thinking of applying for the Ink Bold for the 50k. What documentation does Chase ask for when opening a business account? Is it a pain to apply as a sole prop with just your SS#?

Nice. Thank you.

So, I read a blog entry somewhere that said the Chase Freedom and the Ink Bold get bonuses if the cardholder also is a chase checking account holder, pursuant to something called "Chase Exclusives."
We recently received the Ink Bold pursuant to the 50k offer and, since I happen to have a Chase checking account, I called to have them linked and make sure I'm eligible for Chase Exclusives. The hope was to get them linked so I'd be eligible for the bonus before starting my spend. I was told on the phone that in order to qualify, I need the "Chase Ink Bold Exclusive," which I've never heard of and can't seem to find much about. Anyone have any luck getting a bonus with Ink Bold and chase checking? |

Is it the same physical card, or did you get a new card? |

Yup. I guess I don't want to try to force an upgrade before I do my $5k spend, in case it messes with the bonus.

INK BOLD
Has anyone noticed that the benefits of the Ink BOLD might have changed? It had the tiered bonuses (7.5k for $25k, 15k for another $25K, and 25k for another $50k). I do not see that benefit listed on chase.com anymore and I have noticed they took the wording out of my most recent statement that just dropped the other day and my previous ones all mention the bonuses. With this new statement the first 7,500 point bonus should have posted as I passed the first $25k, but it did not. I sent a SM to Chase to ask whats going on, will report back.
|
I applied today and I got approved for the Ink Bold with a 30k spend limit. Rep told me i get the the bonus points for tiers of spending. I just got the sapphire last week. I have held a Chase Ink for a year.
The 6 month thing is a myth at least in regards to personal and biz. |
Apparently they did change the benefits of the ink bold. No more yearly bonuses. I was planning on applying for the bold for 47500 yearly bonus if you use 100k
