Our Verdict
Last bonus we saw was 125k + free night certificate, previous best was  150k points + $50 statement credit and annual fee waived. Often we see an extra $50 when doing a dummy booking, that is not available this time around and never became available with the last free night certificate deal. I’d still recommend waiting a week or two to see if that extra $50 does become available unless you need the card ASAP. We will be adding this to our list of the best credit card bonuses.
The direct link no longer works. Free night is now gone. https://creditcards.chase.com/travel-credit-cards/ihg-rewards-club/premier
Is 40k Free Night Certificate gone?
thats what I’m seeing too
FYI Both the personal and business card can now be ‘topped off’ per text at Chase site “…with the ability to add on points from your IHG® Rewards account to redeem your Anniversary Free Night at hotels above the 40,000 point redemption level. “
Is this still available? I went to the link it says Offer Unavailable.
All of the Chase IHG cards seem unavailable right now. Might be due to the recent data breach?
can anyone please confirm how long it takes to get IHG points bonus ? mine says on statement that i earned it and it got transferred to IHG but nothing in IHG account….
How soon does IHG status updates after getting approved for Chase IHG card? I want to use the 4 for 3 nights perk.
I was also approved for the card and wanted to use the 4 or 3 nights; I already had some existing IHG points, so I tried booking everyday after approval, for me, it took almost a week for this perk to reflect (my status to elite platinum did update right after approval).
Do we know the expiration date on this offer? I dont find any on the TC or website.
How does the 5/24 rule look like for people on this? I did a Google search and it said that it was more lax with this card in particular.
The spend multipliers are incorrect. It should read:
26 points per dollar spent on IHG properties
5 points per dollar spent on travel, dining & gas
3 points per dollar spent on everything else
Is the 40k free night just the anniversary night or an extra free night after spending $3k?
I would imagine it being an extra free night since the anniversary night does not credit until 1 year into the card.
