Chase Launches Tiered Chase Ink Cash Sign Up + Relationship Bonus

Sign-up Bonus

Chase has launched a new bonus on the Chase Ink Card that is a bit different to the normal offers we see from Chase on business cards. The sign up bonus is as follows:

  • Earn $350 after you spend $3,000 on purchases in the first 3 months your account is open.
  • Plus, an additional $400 when you spend $6,000 on purchases in the first 6 months after account opening

Total bonus is $750 after $6,000 in spend. Not nearly as good as the recent offer of $900 after $6,000 in spend. But you do have an additional three months to meet the spend requirement.

Relationship Bonus

The other change is a 10% relationship bonus when you have both this card and Chase Business Checking account on your first card anniversary. Sign bonus points do not count towards this 10% and neither do transferred points in from other Chase UR earning cards.

Our Verdict

The 10% relationship bonus is interesting, but even if you max out the 5% office supply store category you’d only get 12,500 bonus points and that doesn’t make up the difference from the previous $900 offer. There are currently two business checking bonuses:

Chase used to offer a similar relationship bonus on the Chase Sapphire Preferred but that was removed many years ago. Hopefully that benefit stays when we see a higher sign up bonus on this card but for now we won’t be adding this new offer to the best credit card bonus page.

  • Got approved instantly.

    First time under 5/24 in nearly 3 years (am at 4/24).

    The previous Chase card I got approved for was the Freedom Flex back in June 2021.

    Been a long time coming.

  • can anyone confirm that these Ink cards don't have any terms to block churning? I'm not seeing anything in offer details, or pricing and terms, outlining a waiting period to receive the SUB again.

  • Can we still move the signup bonus reward points earned from this Ink card to CSP ?

  • Doesn't look like you can get a referral offer reflecting the new terms allowing six (6) months for final $400 bonus? All referral links that I have checked show only three (3) months in the offer terms.

  • DP - Was just approved for the Ink Cash a few days prior to the release of this offer. Sent secure message requesting to match the new offer, was declined.

  • I'm going to apply for this card. Is there a page where people have posted their referral links? I would use one so someone gets a bonus, but I don't know where to look.

  • I signed up for the Chase Ink Unlimited last week questioning whether I could make it to the sign-up bonus without putting my rent on it. The 6 month time window is nice.
