Editorial take: Chase Ink Business Premier

Chase's premium business card filling the gap above Ink Business Preferred. The 2.5x on large purchases is unique among UR-earning cards, perfect for businesses that drop $5k+ on equipment, software, or contractors monthly. Pay-in-full required.

Editorial take: Discover it Miles

A rare card that effectively earns 3x in year one (1.5x + match). Miles aren't transferable, but the simplicity + first-year match make this a strong starter travel card.
