Guru’s Wrap-up
This is a good offer for the Chase IHG Club Premier Card. You get 125,000 points and a Reward Night to get started. You also get a Reward Night after each account anniversary year at eligible IHG hotels worldwide. Plus, a Reward Night when you redeem points for any stay of 4 or more nights. Just keep in mind that the Chase 5/24 rule applies to both products, and we have seen a devaluation of IHG points in recent weeks, with many properties going up in prices.
