- Charge card allows for high spending limits to fit your business needs
- 2.5% Cash Back on purchases over $5,000 is a stellar rebate on spend
- Earns Cash Back rather than transferable points.
Pros
- There is no other charge card on the market that offers 2.5% on charges over $5,000 with no monthly or annual limit.
- A flexible spending limit makes it a great choice for heavy spenders; rare on a small business card.
- Primary car rental Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) can be a huge benefit when on the road. This means your personal insurance won't have to get involved for damage to your rental car. (Note that it does not provide liability insurance or coverage for any other car you may be in a collision with.)
Cons
- The Chase Ultimate Rewards points earned with the Ink Business Premier are pure cash back with no option to transfer the points to other Chase small business credit cards (Ink) or Chase Sapphire cards or to airline and hotel transfer partners. This differs from all other Chase Ink credit cards.
- Relatively high annual fee.
- Lack of travel benefits like a Global Entry application fee credit, though you likely have that on another credit card.
When a card earns cash back, it has a value in our calculator of $0.01, just as you'd expect! 😉

Bonus Offer
Get 100,000 Ultimate Rewards points as a bonus when you spend $8,000 in your first 3 months.
As always, your best uses are to fly Delta One to Europe (excluding England) for 50,000 miles – IF you can find available award space and to book ANA First and Business class awards.
Business Class on ANA to Japan would be 35,000 – 37,000 Chase points while First Class would be 56,000 – 66,000 Chase points (depending on if you are on the West Coast (cheaper) or East Coast.
One more great use is domestically on Delta within the US or US-Mexico/Canada.
This is almost never a good transfer unless you are topping off for an award you are ready to book. Keep in mind that we value a Chase point at roughly 3X the value of a Marriott Bonvoy point.
However, there are always exceptions and you might find a 5 night stay (5th night free) where the tranfser makes sense so do the math – but you likely do not want to transfer speculatively.

Bonus Offer
Earn 15,000 Membership Rewards® points after you spend $3,000 in eligible purchases on the Card within your first 3 months of Card Membership. Terms Apply.
** For personal Amex Platinum cardholders only **
Platinum Card® Members get 40% more Hilton Honors™ Points when you transfer Membership Rewards® points through from May 9 to May 31. Offer is only available to current Platinum Card Members on a Platinum Account opened on or before April 20, 2024. Terms apply.
Please note: This transfer bonus is part of the American Express 40th Birthday celebration for The Platinum Card® from American Express. Only personal U.S. Platinum Card® cardholders are eligible. It seems that those holding personal Platinum cards like the Schwab Platinum Card are elso eligible – however, many people that are eligible are not seeing the offer in their account so make sure you see the 40% bonus before transfering!
While it’s always hard to recommend speculative transfers, Hilton points have gotten more attractive since announcing that SLH hotels will be fully integrated into Hilton Honors (See Dave’s recent musing about his thinking on how Hilton points may be becoming more valuable). And as long as you have at least the lowest tier Hilton status, the 5th night is free on any award and resort fees are also waived on award stays.
We value an Amex point at 1.7 cents and a Hilton point at 0.5 cents and while those values are average, with a 5th night free award you can definitely do well transfering 1,000 Amex points for 2,800 Hilton Honors points.
Our advice is to run some sample searches for potential redemptions to see the value you’re likely to get before transfering.
Here’s an interesting one. Aeromexico Rewards points are worth *roughly* 0.75 cents each but with a wide range of ways to redeem.
Normally, you get 1.6 Aeromexico points for 1 Membership Rewards points so that bumps to 1,920 Aeromexico for 1,000 Amex under this ptomotion – so almost 2.1.
Aeromexico uses a range of redemption options including standard fixed awards and flexible awards – and you’ll see what’s available by searching and that does not require an account.
The last Aeromexico transfer bonus was in 2019, so these are pretty rare – though 20% isn’t a total game changer.
You can search here (use Google Translate in your browser if available as it’s in Spanish) to check possible redemptions.
Importantly, note the Aeromexico Rewards cancellation policy which is that, well, you can’t cancel it. You can change it, though.
Award Ticket may not be cancelled or reimbursed. If the Member decides not to use the Award Ticket and does not have a flight date scheduled, their Award Ticket will be open for a future flight on the same route, season and cabin.
The Award Ticket will be open for 1 (one) year after the original issuing date, so the trip must be completed within said validity period. Route or cabin changes are not applicable to new Award Tickets. However, there might be a tax and Premier Point difference between the original Award Ticket and the new one. Said difference must be covered when the new Award Ticket is issued. The issuing of the new Award Ticket is subject to seat availability on the desired flight.
As always, your best uses are to fly Delta One to Europe (excluding England) for 50,000 miles – IF you can find available award space and to book ANA First and Business class awards.
Business Class on ANA to Japan would be 35,000 – 37,000 Amex points while First Class would be 56,000 – 66,000 Amex points (depending on if you are on the West Coast (cheaper) or East Coast.
One more great use is domestically on Delta within the US or US-Mexico/Canada.
Transfer time is up to 48 hours (often close to instant, though).
Bonus points for spend in the following bonus categories:
- 2X points rewards rate on all eligible purchases (up to the first $50,000 spent per calendar year), then 1X
- No annual fee; plus, add employee cards for no additional cost
- Business expense management tools and expanded buying power ability
Pros
- No annual fee, making the Blue Business Plus a great starter card for new or small business owners
- Earn 2X Membership Rewards points on purchases (capped at the first $50,000 in a year)
- Business expense management tools and expanded buying power ability
Cons
- Xhe 2x earning rate is capped at $50,000 per year
- Charges a foreign transaction fee
Instant Transfers as well as solid transfer partners. The value would go up if they had any hotel partners with a fair exchange rate. ANA (an exception to instant transfers), Virgin, Air Canada and Avianca are top airline partners for maximizing your points. They can also transfer to Delta if you wish and while the rates aren't ideal, they can transfer to Marriott and Hilton as well. ANA provides almost unbeatable value for booking a Round the World flight all in Business Class. The stated value also assumes you will take advantage of transfer partners rather than book via their booking portal, where they are only worth between 1 and 1.5 cents. We've also created a Guide to American Express Membership Rewards.
