Chase Sapphire Reserve Earns 5X at Restaurants and Food Delivery Apps

Chase announced that starting July 1 and running through September 30, Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders will earn 5x bonus points for every dollar spent on purchases at gas stations and Instacart grocery delivery and pickup orders. They will also earn 10x on select streaming services.

However, these new benefits might be even better than advertised. Some data points show that restaurant purchases and other food delivery apps (at least DoorDash) orders besides Instacart are also earning 5X Ultimate Rewards points.

The 5x Ultimate Rewards points with Instacart is limited for up to $3,000 in spending. I’m not sure if this limit applies to restaurant and other food delivery purchases, but I would guess so.

Starting July 1 and running through September 30, Chase Sapphire Preferred cardholders will also earn an increased rate of 3x bonus points for every dollar spent on purchases at gas stations and Instacart grocery delivery and pickup orders. They will also earn 5x on select streaming services. Both, Chase Sapphire Reserve and Preferred cardholders, also get up to $50 in statement credits toward an Instacart Express membership.
