Big news for both the Chase Sapphire Reserve® and the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card as Chase has launched new welcome offers. These replace previous best-ever offers that debuted earlier this year. Although these newest bonuses aren’t as generous as their predecessors, they’re still pretty decent. Let’s take a look.
Chase Sapphire Reserve Card
The Chase Sapphire Reserve card, Chase’s top-tier travel credit card, is known for its broad suite of perks. Those who want to apply for the card can receive 50,000 bonus points after spending $4,000 in the first 3 months from account opening.
Keep in mind that the Chase Sapphire Reserve card comes along with a $550 annual fee, though it can certainly be worth it for those who can take advantage of its benefits.
Often referred to as the little brother of the Chase Sapphire Reserve card, the Chase Sapphire Preferred card has recently been revamped to include many new benefits. As a mid-tier card, it has a $95 annual fee — which is a steal if you’re able to maximize the perks it offers.
Update: The offer mentioned below has expired and is no longer available.
The newest welcome offer for the Chase Sapphire Preferred card features the opportunity to earn 60,000 bonus points after spending $4,000 in purchases in the first 3 months.
You can also take advantage of those perks we mentioned:
Earns 5x points per $1 on all travel booked via the Chase Travel portal
Earns 3x points per $1 on dining purchases, online grocery purchases, and select streaming services
Earns 2x points per $1 on all other travel worldwide, then 1x on all other purchases
Earn 5x points on each Peloton Bike, Tread, and accessory purchase over $1,800, up to 25,000 total points, and a complimentary Digital Membership from Peloton after your order (through March 31, 2022)
$50 annual credit on hotel stays booked through the Chase Travel portal
10% annual bonus points
Complimentary DoorDash DashPass subscription (must activate by December 31, 2027)
Complimentary Spot Club Platinum status with The Parking Spot for 2 years, 20% off of your first reservation, and points for 1 free day of parking (enroll by October 26, 2023)
These new offers from Chase aren’t quite as generous as their predecessors — that being said, 60,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points is nothing to scoff at, nor is the 50,000-point bonus featured by the Chase Sapphire Reserve card. Combined with the benefits both cards now offer, you can easily find value that offsets these cards’ annual fees.
