Chase and IHG just made one of the biggest updates we\u2019ve seen to the IHG One Rewards credit card lineup<\/a> in years.<\/p>\n

The refreshed portfolio now includes a brand-new premium IHG card, two updated personal cards, and a refreshed business card. Across the lineup, cardholders will find new statement credits, higher Free Night Award redemption caps, elite-night-credit benefits, updated earning categories, and limited-time welcome offers.<\/p>\n

But as you might have suspected, these changes also come with higher annual fees on several cards \u2014 and a few notable downgrades for existing cardholders.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a closer look at the new IHG card lineup, what\u2019s changing on each card, and our take on whether these updates are good news for IHG loyalists.<\/p>\n

The IHG One Rewards Premier Select Credit Card is the latest addition to Chase's IHG lineup, built for travelers who stay with IHG often enough to put its credits to work. Cardholders earn up to 28X points per $1 at IHG properties (including points multipliers from your elite status), 6X points on dining and all other travel, including rideshare, and 3X points on all other purchases. Automatic Platinum Elite status comes with the card, along with 20 Elite Night Credits at the start of each calendar year, which is enough to earn your first Milestone Reward straight away. The headline credits are up to $300 a year in Food & Beverage Rewards at IHG hotels and a $200 airline statement credit once you spend $250 on flights booked directly with the airline, which together can more than offset the annual fee. You also get an Anniversary Free Night at hotels costing up to 60,000 points (you can add your own points for pricier stays) and a fourth Reward Night free on four-night award stays. Additional perks include a 30% discount on point purchases, no foreign transaction fees, up to $50 in United TravelBank Cash, and a Global Entry, TSA PreCheck, or NEXUS credit every four years.<\/div>
