TPG featured card
Quick summary
A premium business travel card offers a suite of statement credits for hotel bookings, travel, business services and rideshare platforms.
Credits include annual and biannual allowances for luxury hotel stays, job posting services, productivity tools, food delivery, airport security programs, rideshare, and gift cards.
Some credits require minimum purchases, specific booking channels or active memberships to unlock their full value.
Additional credits are available after reaching a high annual spending threshold, though these may not offer the best return for all users.
What to consider
Certain credits require minimum transaction amounts, specific booking portals or active memberships to be eligible.
Some credits are use-it-or-lose-it and do not roll over if unused within the designated period.
High-value credits tied to annual spending thresholds may only benefit businesses with significant expenses.
What you'll miss from the article
A detailed breakdown of each credit's requirements, eligible merchants and strategies to maximize their value.

The card has a hefty $795 annual fee, but the numerous statement credits it offers can help offset it. Let's dive into what you need to know about the statement credits on the Sapphire Reserve for Business.
Overview of Sapphire Reserve for Business credits
Here’s a list of the credits the offers:

Travel
$300 annually
Google Workspace
$200 (through Dec. 31, 2027)

Global Entry, TSA PreCheck or Nexus
$120 (every four years)
Lyft
$120 ($10 monthly in-app credit; through Sept. 30, 2027)
Giftcards.com
$100 annually ($50 biannually; through Oct. 31, 2028)

$500 (requires $120,000 or more in spending in a year to unlock)

$500 (requires $120,000 or more in spending in a year to unlock)
The Edit
The Edit by Chase Travel℠ is a luxury hotel booking portal. To trigger this credit, you must book a minimum two-night prepaid stay with a property from The Edit. You'll receive up to $250 back per transaction, up to two times annually. When you stay at The Edit properties, you receive perks like:
As an added perk with The Edit properties, any hotel elite status benefits you have apply, and you'll earn bonus points and elite night credits.
When searching for a hotel on The Edit, you'll see that the property may be listed as World of Hyatt or Marriott Bonvoy eligible. Just remember to put your hotel loyalty membership number on the booking.
Even if you stay at a luxury hotel just once per year, you should have no problem using this credit. Just remember, you must book a minimum two-night prepaid stay through The Edit to receive your credit.
Pro tip: To extend a trip, consider stacking any free night certificates you may have with The Edit credit.
This credit is not restrictive like the one offered on the Capital One Venture X Business, as it does not have to be redeemed via a travel portal. As such, this is one of the easiest credits to use.
It's triggered after you make any purchase that Chase defines as travel, even smaller purchases like parking or tolls.

If you make any travel purchases, you'll have no issues maximizing this credit. You may even use this credit without realizing it.
Note, however, that you won't earn any bonus points on purchases covered by the credit.
Google Workspace offers a suite of productivity tools for businesses, with artificial intelligence at its core. Popular tools in the Workspace suite include Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar and Google Meet.
XAVIER LORENZO/GETTY IMAGES
Cardholders will receive up to $200 to cover Google Workspace purchases (through Dec. 31, 2027). Google Workspace plans start at $7 per month, per user.
If you use the premium version of any of Google's productivity tools, most are included in Workspace, so you should be able to get value from this credit.
The offers three monthly DoorDash promos. You'll receive one $5 restaurant promo and two $10 nonrestaurant promos monthly (with an active DoorDash DashPass membership; through Dec. 31, 2027).
This credit should be easy for businesses to use. If you order delivery for your team just once a month, this credit will easily save you some money. Plus, with the two non-restaurant promos, you can use these to have supplies from office stores delivered.
DOORDASH
You'll also receive a complimentary DoorDash DashPass membership (activation required; through Dec. 31, 2027), which gives you $0 delivery fees and reduced service fees on eligible orders.
It's important to note that your Sapphire Reserve for Business must be used as the payment method to receive these benefits. Additionally, if you don't use the full credit on a single order, the remaining value is forfeited.
Pro tip: If you're close to the restaurant or store you're ordering from, opt for pickup instead of delivery to save money on fees.
These programs offer expedited airport security and entry into the U.S. or Canada.
SEAN CUDAHY/THE POINTS GUY
Pro tip: Opt for Global Entry, as it includes TSA PreCheck. Additionally, if you already have Global Entry or TSA PreCheck, you can use this application fee credit on one of your employees, friends or family members; just pay for the application with your card.
Cardholders receive $10 in monthly Lyft ride credits, which are added to their Lyft account on the first of each month (through Sept. 30, 2027).
LYFT
This is a use-it-or-lose-it credit, and any unused portion will not roll over. This credit should be fairly easy for most to use. If you order just one ride via a ride-hailing service a month, you'll likely be able to use this entire credit.
Plus, you'll earn 5 points per dollar spent on Lyft rides with your card (through Sept. 30, 2027).
Cardholders can receive an up to $50 biannual Giftcards.com statement credit (through Oct. 31, 2028). To use the credit, go to this site, select a gift card and pay with your .
Some popular merchants include Chipotle, DoorDash, Lululemon, Nordstrom, Panera and Ulta Beauty.
SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY
This credit is very straightforward, and most should have no trouble using it. You could use it to show employee appreciation or treat your team to lunch.
Pro tip: Activate Rakuten before purchasing your gift card so you can earn additional cash back.
The also allows cardholders to earn additional statement credits after spending $120,000 or more in a calendar year. After you meet this spending threshold, you'll earn a $500 Shops at Chase credit and a $500 Southwest Airlines credit.

These credits don't represent great returns on your spending, so it's not worth going out of your way to try to earn them. However, if you can meet this spending requirement organically, they are a nice bonus.
Bottom line
The Sapphire Reserve for Business provides numerous statement credits; even if you only use a fraction of them, you could still recoup your annual fee. Plus, the card has premium perks like lounge access and travel protections, making it an excellent option to consider adding to your wallet.
