Earning Scenarios

2.5% Cash Back on Every Purchase of $5,000 or More

Earn an additional 0.5% on top of the base 2% rate when any single purchase bills at $5,000 or more. No spending caps. If items ship at different times and bill separately under $5,000 each, only the base 2% applies.

A $10,000 equipment purchase earns $250 cash back. At $50K annual spend on large purchases, that's $1,250 in rewards — more than 6x the annual fee.

2% Cash Back on All Other Business Purchases

Unlimited earning on everything from office supplies to software subscriptions. No category tracking required. Redeem cash back as statement credits, direct deposits, or gift cards with no minimums.

On $100K in total annual business spend, earn $2,000 cash back at the base rate alone — 10x the $195 annual fee.

5% Cash Back on Chase Travel Bookings

Book flights, hotels, and rental cars through Chase Travel to earn 5% total cash back (3% bonus on top of the 2% base rate). Access millions of travel options with no blackout dates.

Book $5,000 in annual business travel through Chase and earn $250 — covering 128% of the annual fee from travel alone.

5% Cash Back on Lyft Rides Through September 2027

Earn 5% total cash back on Lyft rides through September 30, 2027. Stack with Lyft promotions and rewards for maximum value on business transportation.

Spend $2,000 annually on Lyft for client meetings and earn $100 cash back — 51% of the annual fee covered.

You get flat-rate cash back with no spending caps, making it ideal for businesses with large, uncategorized expenses. The $195 fee breaks even at $9,750 annual spend.
