Flyertalk is a collaborative effort. Some offers will be served read-to-use, most will require some effort. Card issuers typically circulate multiple variants of the same offer for market research purposes. Knowing that there is an 80,000 point offer is useful to someone who might receive a less generous version.
completely agree ... just a bit pissed I can't jump on this one right now. :-)

Does anyone have any experience with applying for an Ink card as an individual? I'm just curious if chase cares that I'm not a business.

Well here's hoping a link gets posted! I was getting ready to pull the trigger on the Sapphire Preferred card, but I guess I'll wait and see how this shakes out.

I could recommend just using your real name for your business name. As people who weren't instantly approved learned from the AA Biz card w Citi it was a lot easier to get approved if the business name was just your name instead of some fake name when the bank wanted proof of your "business".

Wouldn't mind getting both. 50K for Ink-Bold and 50K for Sapphire w/$3000 spend. 100K transferred to BA pushes me over the next F award threshold.

If you have Chase business checking account you may get the mailers.
I threw out several Ink card solicitations just a week or so ago without really reading them. Both of us have the CO business checking accounts from last Oct and have been getting Ink card promotion materials since March.
In previous Chase mailer campaigns, the same offers often been sent multiple times. I will be on the look out if and when next batch arrives.

FWIW, I applied for a different Chase Business card and got a call to supply all of the business's information, including its incorporation documents or secretary of state registration. They also wanted an EIN. Not sure if my experience was typical, but it definitely was different from applying for a business card from, say, Citi or Amex. YMMV.

Are the points held by Chase and you then use their travel agency to book flights? If so, does anyone have a link to "cost" per award ticket?
Or, do the points simply transfer into an airline's program? Exchange rate?
More info, please.

No link for Ink?
I've been googling and trying to see if I can find anything more than the std 10K offer but cannot find anything.
