• Chase is offering a tiered bonus of up to 120,000 points on the Chase Southwest Business Performance
  • 80,000 points after $5,000 in spend within three months of account opening
  • An additional 40,000 points after you spend a total of $20,000 within the six months of account opening

Card Details

• $199 annual fee (not waived first year)
• Card earns at the following rates:
  • 3x Southwest points per $1 spent on Southwest and Rapid Rewards hotel and car rental partner purchases
  • 2x Southwest points per $1 spent on purchases in the following rewards categories: social media and search engine advertising; internet, cable, and phone services
  • 1x Southwest points per $1 spent on all other purchases
• Four upgrade boardings per year when available
  • Every anniversary year you will be reimbursed for the purchase of 4 upgraded boardings. Upgraded boardings are positions A1-A15. These can be purchased on the day of travel only at either the departure gate or ticket counter and aren’t always available. Price of these upgraded boardings varies based on the itinerary, I think it’s usually $30-$40.
  • The benefits of being in this boarding position is you may be able to get an exit row seat (and at worst you’ll get another seat you want) and you can find overhead bin space.
  • Anniversary year is defined as ‘the year beginning with your account open date through the first statement date after your account open date anniversary, and the 12 monthly billing cycles after that each year.’
• Up to $100 Global Entry or TSA PreCheck Fee Credit
• No foreign transaction fees
• 9,000 anniversary points each year
• Inflight WiFi Credits, up to a total of 365 $8 credits per year for all WiFi transactions on the overall business card account
• Earn tier qualifying points towards A-list status
  • For every $10,000 in purchases you make you’ll earn 1,500 tier qualifying points (TQPs), you’re limited to $100,000 in spend or 15,000 TQPs. These can be used towards qualifying for A-List status (35,000 TQPs or 25 qualifying one way flights) or A-List preferred (70,000 TQPS or 50 qualifying one way flights).
  • For this benefit, “Annually” means the year beginning with your account open date through the first December statement date of that same year, and each 12 billing cycles starting after your December statement date through the following December statement date.
• Points earned count towards Companion Pass
• Employee cards at no additional cost
• 5/24 does apply to this card

Our Verdict

Better than the previous 100k offer. Shame this one is targeted as it would be added to the best credit card bonuses otherwise.
