The card now carries a $795 annual fee — up $245 from its previous $550 fee — but has numerous statement credits and benefits to offset this jump.  Plus, you’ll earn one of the most valuable and flexible currencies in the form of the Chase Ultimate Rewards points.

When factoring in the value of the $500 Chase Travel credit, this is the best-ever bonus we’ve seen on this card. If you’re interested in applying, here’s everything you need to know regarding your eligibility for this lucrative welcome bonus.
