Chase Ink Business Cash welcome bonus

Earn $750 after you spend $6,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening.

Chase publishes no end date for this offer. It runs until the issuer replaces it, which can happen without notice — the terms you see on the application are the ones that bind.

Chase Ink Business Cash APR

Introductory APR: 0% for 12 months on purchases. After it ends, the ongoing APR is 18.49%–24.49% — variable with the prime rate, and your exact rate within that range is set from your profile at approval.

The intro window is what makes this card usable as working capital: a balance carried inside it costs nothing. Anything still owed when the period ends starts accruing at the standard rate — the intro rate is not retroactive, but it does not backdate interest either.

Chase Ink Business Cash annual fee

The Chase Ink Business Cash annual fee is $0 — no yearly cost to keep the account open.

Does the Chase Ink Business Cash count toward 5/24?

No. The Chase Ink Business Cash is a business card, so it does not add to your 5/24 count once approved. Chase still applies the rule when it decides — you generally need to be under Chase's 5/24 to be approved (business cards don't add to your 5/24 count).

How many Chase Ink cards can you have?

Chase publishes no cap on how many Ink cards one business can hold, and holding more than one is common. What limits you in practice is the total credit Chase has already extended across your accounts, how recently you last applied, and where you stand on 5/24 at the moment of each application.
