Compare the Features and Benefits of Chase Ink Business Premier℠ Credit Card and
Capital One SavorOne Cash Rewards Credit Card

The Ink Business Premier credit card from Chase fits a specific target audience.

The businesses best suited for this card spend a very high amount monthly and want to simplify their spending. Especially if you have frequent charges over $5,000, that annual fee is paid for many times over by the extra 1/2 percent earned in cash back.

While it’s easy to get caught up in miles and points, if you are spending and earning more points than you can realistically spend, it’s not at all a bad idea.

However, if you want to earn transferable points, you would be better served by a Capital One Spark Cash Select. Alone, the Spark Cash is also just straight cash, but if you have a Venture, Venture X, or Spark Miles for Business card, you can convert the cash to miles.

If that’s not a concern, then the Chase Ink Business Premier is easily the very best business charge card out there. No other credit card or charge card will get you more cash back on purchases.

Many small business owners spend a ton on inventory monthly and could be earning huge amounts of cashback, but don’t have time to learn about miles and points. This business card is perfect for those small business owners. If purchases tend to be large purchases over $5,000 (which earn 2.5%) it becomes even better.

Unlike the Capital One Savor card (now discontinued for new applicants, anyway), which offers 4% back dining but the same 3% back on dining, at grocery stores, and on entertainment purchases and popular streaming services) but charges a $95 annual fee, the SavorOne, despite 1% less in cash back, will be a better choice until you reach a high level of spend such that the annual fee is offset.

Plus, don’t forget that you’ll earn cash rewards (8%) on Capital One Entertainment Purchases and 5% cash rewards on hotels and rental cars booked through Capital One Travel.

Early on in this review, I mentioned a “secret” way to convert your SavorOne cash back into Capital One miles (See our complete guide to Capital One Miles).

If you also have a Capital One Venture X, Venture, VentureOne, or Spark Miles for Business card, you can freely convert your SavorOne cash back into miles by transferring the cash back to any of those cards. It transfers 1:1, meaning that $10 = 1,000 miles.

Here’s a list of Capital One Miles transfer partners should you transfer your SavorOne cash rewards over to one of the aforementioned cards (to be clear, you cannot transfer to any of these partners with this card alone; you would need a Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card, Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card, Capital One VentureOne Rewards Credit Card, or Capital One Spark Miles for Business card to transfer to):

There’s no denying that 3% cash back on dining, grocery store, streaming services and entertainment purchases is a solid deal for a credit card without an annual fee. In fact, entertainment purchases (which include things like concerts and shows) is one of the rarest bonus categories. If you attend a lot of Broadway shows or concerts, this card can really rack them up. And should you happen to resell any tickets on StubHub, etc, this is an extra 3% in your pocket.

Plus, if you don’t mind booking hotels and rental cars booked through Capital One Travel, that’s 5% cash back as well.

Bottom line? If you are interested in cash back rather than points, this would be a good card to have in your wallet, however, I would recommend pairing it with another card for other categories. For many, a second card like a Citi Double Cash, which earns 2% on everything, could be the perfect card combo. Or, scroll down and use our own Card Combo tool to see which card would pair best with a SavorOne based on your own spending profile.

And remember what I said above… there are ways to convert this cash back into Capital One Miles as well.
