Chase Business Bonuses Peak: 200k UR and $1k Cash. But Read the Ink Fine Print.

Four Chase business cards are at elevated offers simultaneously. The Ink Business Cash and Ink Business Unlimited each offer $1,000 cash back after $8,000 spend in four months with no annual fee. The Ink Business Preferred gives 100,000 Ultimate Rewards after $8,000 in three months for a $95 fee. The Sapphire Reserve for Business offers 200,000 Ultimate Rewards with a larger spend requirement over six months. A new restriction: no-annual-fee Ink bonuses may not be available if you have ever held any no-annual-fee Chase business card, so check eligibility carefully before applying.

Business Gold: 200k points variable - the $15k spend is the hurdle.

The Business Gold's welcome bonus of up to 200,000 Membership Rewards points is variable - you see your offer at application and can walk away. The $15,000 spend in three months and $375 annual fee are fixed. To offset the fee, the card offers monthly credits for FedEx, Grubhub, and office supply stores ($20), Walmart+ ($12.95), and a new $300 annual ChatGPT credit. The 4x points on top two categories (advertising, electronics, restaurants, wireless, gas, transit) cap at 600,000 points per year on $150,000 spend.

Offset the $375 fee with the monthly credits and ChatGPT credit while earning the 200,000-point welcome bonus.

HSBC S$60 off SQ: Stack it on an S$500 fare, not a S$2,000 one. 25-31 Aug only.

The HSBC-Singapore Airlines promo code HSBCDEAL gives S$60 off round-trip flights, up to two times (S$120 total), for bookings through 31 Aug 2026. The real play is stacking it with the ongoing sale fares to 74 destinations (bookable until 10 Sep 2026), but only for flights excluding Southeast Asia. Since there's no minimum spend, the S$60 is best on cheap round-trip fares under S$500 to India, China or Australia, where the discount cuts the ticket by 12% or more. The HSBC Revolution Card earns 4 mpd on the booking (or 8 mpd with a S$50,000 deposit), but note the poor KrisFlyer transfer ratio drops that to an effective 3.3 mpd.

the play

Book a round-trip Singapore Airlines flight from Singapore to a non-Southeast Asian city for under S$500 by 31 Aug 2026, using promo code HSBCDEAL on singaporeair.com and paying with an HSBC Revolution Card to stack the S$60 discount with 4 mpd earnings.
