Great Sign-up Bonuses On Chase IHG Premier & Traveler Cards

Chase has a great sign-up bonus on the Chase IHG Premier and Traveler Cards

• IHG Premier: Earn 165,000 bonus points after spending $3,000 in the first 3 months.

• IHG Traveler: Earn 2 Free Nights— up to 50k points per night plus 40,000 bonus points after spending $2,000 in the first 3 months.

I personally have the IHG Premier card as it offers a free night certificate every year (up to 40k points per night) which is a great deal as you can't often find good hotels for less than the $99 annual fee these days.

You can apply for the cards here:

No referral link as the referral offer isn't as good as this offer.
