Overview
- IHG and Chase published a refreshed co-branded credit-card portfolio that introduces a new Premier Select card and updates fees and benefits across existing cards.
- All cards carry elevated, limited-time sign-up bonuses from 125,000 to 200,000 points that are available only through mid-November 2026.
- The Premier Credit Card’s annual fee rises to $150 while its included IHG One Rewards elite level drops to Gold and its annual free-night award increases to 50,000 points.
- Three cards include a variable airline statement credit that requires a $250 or larger ticket purchase and is valid through December 31, 2027, and quarterly food-and-beverage certificates are issued at the start of each quarter and expire at quarter end.
- Cards now deliver 5–20 Elite Night Credits usable toward Milestone Rewards, the no-fee card can unlock the 4th Night Free after $5,000 in calendar-year spend starting in 2027, and these mechanics shift practical value depending on members’ stay and spend patterns.
