5.5 Million Points, $1,050 in Travel Credits for the Chase Sapphire Reserve Card’s 10th Anniversary

Chase Sapphire Reserve^® is marking its 10-year anniversary with a stack of limited-time credits, an upgraded DoorDash benefit, and a contest that could hand 1 lucky cardmember 5.5 million Ultimate Rewards points.

If you hold the Chase Sapphire Reserve card, there’s some serious money on the table over the next few months with limited-time travel offers, plus the card’s DoorDash benefits are getting an upgrade for a few years.

Here’s what’s rolling out and how to make use of the changes.

Limited-Time Travel Credits Worth up to $1,050

These offers are for anyone who holds the Chase Sapphire Reserve card as of September 16, 2026, and each requires activation. Bookings and payments must be directly with the partner, as Chase Travel portal bookings don’t count.

October 16 Deadline

This offer requires activation. Cardmembers can get $125 back after spending $500 or more on an eligible IHG Hotels & Resorts stay in the U.S., as long as the payment is completed by October 16, 2026.

December 14 Deadline

These 4 credits give you until December 14, 2026, to activate and pay:

• $250 back after spending $1,000 or more on a stay at Miraval or Alila properties within World of Hyatt (U.S. locations only)
• $200 back after spending $200 or more on a semi-private JSX flight
• $350 back after spending $1,500 or more on a Wander vacation home
• $125 back after spending $500 or more on a premium SIXT car rental (not available if you opened our your Chase Sapphire Reserve card after August 25, 2026)

Stack all 5 offers, and you can earn $1,050 in statement credits, though you’d have to spend $3,700 to unlock everything. Not every offer will fit every travel pattern, so pick the ones that match trips you’d take anyway.

None of these offers is worth going out of your way to use if you wouldn’t spend money with the brand normally.

The DoorDash Benefit Gets an Upgrade

Starting October 1, 2026, the monthly $5 DoorDash restaurant credit becomes a $15 credit good on any eligible DoorDash order, restaurant or otherwise. The 2 existing $10 non-restaurant promos aren’t changing. That means Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders can get up to $35 in DoorDash value each month, up from the $25 allotment.

The upgraded benefit runs through December 31, 2029, so it’s not permanent — though it will be in effect for a few years. For heavy DoorDash users, that’s up to $420 in annual value, a 40% bump over what the card offered before.

Post a Trip, Maybe Win 5.5 Million Points

The anniversary contest opens on September 16 and accepts entries through November 6, 2026. Cardmembers who share their favorite trip taken since 2016 could get a chance to recreate it with the Chase Sapphire Reserve card footing the bill.

A selection of 10 finalists will move to a public voting round. The grand-prize winner walks away with 5.5 million Ultimate Rewards points. The other 9 finalists each get 500,000 points.

Based on our valuation of Ultimate Rewards points at 2 cents each, the finalists will take home $10,000 in points, and the winner gets $110,000 in points.

The official rules are available at chase.com/sapphire-cards/reserve-tenth-anniversary.

Final Thoughts

The IHG offer expires first, so activate it now if you have a U.S. IHG stay coming up. The other 4 credits stay open through mid-December, so you have a few more weeks to use them.

Meanwhile, DoorDash users get an extra $10 a month for the next 3 years. There’s also an interesting contest that costs nothing to enter, so if you’ve got a trip worth writing about from the last decade, get it in before November 6. You could take home a boatload of points for your effort.
