Chase
Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier Business
What it is
The Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier Business is a Chase business card earning Southwest Rapid Rewards points. It's mainly a sign-up-bonus play: earn the bonus, then keep or close. A Southwest business card — its points stack toward the Companion Pass on a separate business line, so it doesn't compete with the personal Southwest bonus pool.
