If Chase UR (Ultimate Rewards) points post to the same UR account, you can get a personal Sapphire Preferred and transfer those points to CO.

Thank You!
However i currently have a one pass card and going to be applying for a sapphire..........but i also do alot of spending for business purposes and i would like to start keeping them separate as per your advice in a previous post elsewhere (bec i do alot of charging and dont wanna raise any flags) but i still would like to earn CO Points. so any suggestions for a "Businnes  card that earns CO Points?

Thanx for taking the time and trying to be helpful!

Chase has business rewards cards that give you UR points. If the points are deposited into the same account as your Sapphire, you'll be able to transfer them to CO. Anyone have any experience with this?

I don't see why that wouldn't work.
But what's wrong with a CO business OPP?
If you spend enough go for the CO business PP.

Are they still accepting applications for that card? On their business site they only have the Ink cards.

That's CO promoting them, but if Chase offers the cards why don't they promote them?

So u are referring to WORLD MASTERCARD FOR BUSINESS.
Do they have the same advantages as One Pass Personal cards like Purchase protection and all the good stuff the one pass offers?

I tried calling chase to see if this would work, but they said no. Im not sure if they know what they are talking about. anyway to figure out if this would work? Couple of question for you......chase has several credit cards that have UR are you suggesting that only the sapphire rewards preffered UR has the ability to transfer to Continental? How can they figure out the difference? Any suggestions?

Why should i go with "CO business PP" if i spend alot? Is there certain perks for spending alot? Seems like there is a high price tag for that card?

Ink card is a chase business cards. As far as I know it doesn't have any great sign up bonus or great rewards, However if we get some clarification from asher0 or Dan, it may be able to be used to acquire CO points. Still awaiting their response :)
