Southwest Rapid Rewards Performance Business
The Southwest Performance Business is the business card version that I prefer. It has a $199 annual fee but the benefits more than cover the annual fee cost. It currently offers a 80,000 point bonus after you spend $5000 in the first 3 months.
The card's benefits include: 9000 points each year on your cardmember anniversary. Southwest points are generally worth 1.6 cents each so 9000 points is worth $144.
It also will credit your Global Entry or TSA PreCheck every 4 years up to $100. I'll never go without Global Entry again so this is worth $25/year to me.
Ever use WiFi on flights? This card credits you back the cost of Wifi on Southwest flights. 365 $8 credits per year! I don't fly Southwest everyday but maybe will take 4-6 flights per year, so I value this benefit at $24 as I usually don't purchase Wifi.
It also gives you four upgraded boarding positions each year. These are actually better than purchasing early bird since you will get boarding position A1-A15 when you purchase this at the check-in counter or ticket counter. While early bird is usually $15-$25, upgraded boardings cost $30-$50. For simplicity, let’s just say these are worth $15 (like the cheapest early bird).
$144 (9000 miles) + $60 (upgraded boarding) + $25 (Global Entry) + $24 (wifi) = $253 value vs $199 annual fee.
Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier Business
The Southwest Premier Business card has a $99 annual fee and it currently offers a 60,000 point bonus after you spend $3000 in the first 3 months.
The 6000 points each year that this card gives you on your cardmember anniversary just about cover the cost of the annual fee. Southwest points are generally worth 1.6 cents each so 6000 points is worth $96.
It also earns 2X points on all Southwest purchases and 1X points on everything else.
Chase United Business Card
The Chase United Business Card is currently offering 75,000 bonus miles after making $5,000 in purchases within the first 3 months of account opening plus $0 intro annual fee.
Get a free checked bag, 25% back on United inflight purchases, priority boarding, and 2 United Club one-time passes just for being a card holder.
Earn 2 miles for every $1 spent on United purchases, at restaurants, gas stations, office supply stores, and on local transit and commuting.
Also get $100 United travel credit after 7 United flight purchases of $100 or more each card anniversary year. Finally, also receive 5,000 bonus miles each anniversary when you have the United Business Card and a personal United credit card.
The card's annual fee after the first year is $99. Learn more and apply here.
