Chase Sapphire Preferred also falls under the Chase 5/24 rule.
Guru’s Wrap-up
This is a great offer for the Chase Sapphire Preferred credit card and the best we have seen. It is publicly available so if you are eligible, it is definitely worth going for it. Chase also has a great offers currently for the new Freedom Flex card that just went live today. However this Chase Sapphire Preferred bonus is much better. Sadly referral links do not show this new increased offer.
The bonus is worth $1,000 toward travel when redeemed through Chase Ultimate Rewards. But it could be even better ($1,200) if you have a Chase Sapphire Reserve Card or transfer points to travel partners.
And if you recently got the Chase Sapphire Preferred card don’t worry. Just message Chase and ask to be matched to this new increased bonus. They will usually do this if you have applied for a lesser offer within the last 90 days.
