The inaugural TPG Awards in New York City were a huge success, with highlights including a performance by Bebe Rexha, tributes to Nobel Laureate Leymah Gbowee and Captain Sully and, of course, the presentation of awards to winners across credit card, loyalty program and airline categories.
You can view the full list of winners here, but today let’s highlight the Best Business Credit Card of the Year category. TPG readers selected three cards as finalists, but the one to ultimately take the cake with the most reader votes was the Business Platinum® Card from American Express. This card offers one of the most extensive lists of perks around, with a 35% Pay With Points rebate, an up to $200 annual airline fee credit, complimentary Gold status with both Hilton and Marriott and more. Amex just announced a new WeWork access perk and an annual Dell statement credit along with an annual fee hike from $450 to $595 (starting in February), so card holders will have to weigh whether it’s worth it, but there’s no denying it can be a worthwhile pick for business owners who frequently travel.
Here’s how the other two finalists in the category stacked up, in descending order:
These two Chase business cards are also strong options, especially for those who don’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on annual fees. The Ink Business Preferred Card has one of the most valuable welcome bonuses among business cards (80,000 Ultimate Rewards points after spending $5,000 in the first 3 months) along with a lucrative earning structure, while the Ink Business Unlimited gives you the flexibility to earn 1.5% back on all purchases or, if you have another Chase card that earns Ultimate Rewards points, to earn 1.5x points on all spending, equal to a 3% return based on TPG’s valuations.
