Frequently asked questions

What's the IHG One Rewards Premier Select welcome bonus?

200,000 points after spending $5,000 in the first 3 months. At our ~0.6¢/pt valuation, that's roughly $1200 in real value.

Is the IHG One Rewards Premier Select worth the $350 annual fee?

Year-one math: welcome bonus value (~$1200) + annual credits ($1030) − $350 fee = ~$1880 net before spending earn. Year-two onward, the credits alone need to clear $350 — they do. Worth it if you'll use the credits, skip if you'd let them expire.

5 recurring statement credits: $300 Food & Beverage Rewards credit ($300), $200 airline statement credit ($200/yr), United TravelBank Cash ($50/yr), Instacart credit ($120/mo), Anniversary Free Night (up to 60,000 points) ($360/yr). Total: $1030/yr.

Does the IHG One Rewards Premier Select have foreign transaction fees?

Check the card's terms — most premium travel cards waive foreign transaction fees, while no-fee and entry-tier cards usually charge 2-3%. Chase's product page has the current rate.
