100,000-Point Welcome Bonus with Chase Ink Business Preferred Is Now Available After Spending $8,000
June 29, 2023
Until recently, the Chase Ink Business Preferred® Credit Card has been offering 100,000 points to new cardmembers who spend $15,000 or more on their card within the first three months after account opening. However, as of June 29, 2023, Chase has lowered the spending requirement to earn this welcome bonus, making this already-great deal even more lucrative.
Now, you can earn the welcome bonus by spending $8,000 (nearly half the previous spending requirement) in the first three months after account opening.

March 28, 2017
In February, my parents flew down to South America to join me for a trip in Rio de Janiero, followed by a week spent in Buenos Aires, the location I call home for at least half the year.
I booked them in United Business between Charleston, SC and Rio de Janiero using United miles, and LATAM Business between Buenos Aires and Miami using American Airlines miles.
