From your real spend and redemptions.

$690 of the advertised value — 100% — comes with strings attached.

Why Perqt says this
  • $690 advertised across 3 benefits.
  • $690 (100%) needs a booking, enrollment, or deadline.
  • Biggest credit — $300 ChatGPT Business Credit, $300 — only via ChatGPT.
  • No-hoops value covers 0% of the annual fee.
Better fit if
  • You book travel through ChatGPT.
  • 4× on top two select categories matches your spend.
Probably not if
  • You book direct, not via ChatGPT.
  • You want the fee covered without chasing — $199 short.
