Issuer Rules

Rules: To be eligible for the Ink Business Unlimited card and its welcome bonus (e.g., $750 cash back equivalent after spending $6,000 on purchases within the first 3 months of account opening, typical for 2026), applicants must meet several key criteria: 1. **Chase 5/24 Rule**: The applicant must not have opened 5 or more personal or business credit cards from any issuer in the past 24 months. This rule is strictly enforced by Chase. 2. **Legitimate Business**: Applicants must operate a legitimate business, which can include sole proprietorships (using an SSN), LLCs, corporations, or partnerships (using an EIN). 3. **Previous Bonus Eligibility**: Generally, applicants are not eligible for the welcome bonus if they currently hold the Ink Business Unlimited card or have received a new cardmember bonus for this specific card in the past 24 months. 4. **Chase Internal Application Velocity**: Subject to Chase's internal application velocity rules, which may limit the number of cards an individual can apply for within a short period (e.g., 2 cards in 30 days for personal cards, though business card rules can be slightly more lenient but still subject to scrutiny). 5. **Creditworthiness**: Applicants must meet Chase's creditworthiness standards, including a good personal credit score and sufficient income/business revenue.

Maximum Cards Per Issuer: 10

Minimum Spend Interval: 3 months

Shutdown Risk Triggers: Manufactured spending (MS) activities, rapid accumulation of high credit limits across multiple Chase cards, suspicious spending patterns inconsistent with the declared business type, frequent balance transfers without genuine business activity, applying for business cards without a legitimate business, defaulting on payments, or closing accounts too quickly after receiving a welcome bonus.
