Katie's Take
Why this card might (or might not) be right for you.
Chase Ink cards are our favorite option when we have larger expenses coming that help us to meet the higher minimum spend. This card will allow you to transfer its points to all of Chase's travel partners like Hyatt, United, Southwest, and more. Note that after October 1, 2026 this card will have a reduced transfer ratio to Hyatt (4:3 instead of 1:1).
I also love the 3x earning on travel expenses and no foreign transaction fees on this card.

*Nota bene:* If you have multiple business cards from Chase already, it might be harder to be approved. Chase also added more approval restrictions to this card if you've previously had this in the past.
