If you currently have any kind of Saphire personal card that is active, you will NOTqualify for bonus points, even if you are approved.
If you close your Saphire card recently, you will need to wait 48 months from the date you received the previous Saphire bonus before applying to get the new card's bonus points.
Be careful not to waste a hard credit pull Smilie

Chase T&C:
"The product is not available to either (i) current cardmembers of any Sapphire credit card, or (ii) previous cardmembers of any Sapphire credit card who received a new cardmember bonus within the last 48 months. If you are an existing Sapphire customer and would like this product, please call the number on the back of your card to see if you are eligible for a product change. You will not receive the new cardmember bonus if you change products."
95 af is not waived for first year basically previously it was 50k with 95 waived first year now it's 60k with 95 af so pretty much the same
Also I'll get csr rather than csp if you spend 3400+ in travel, dining etc
It is pretty straightforward. When you use your card for ANY travel purchase (like Airbnb, airfare, hotels, Lyft, Uber, parking, some tolls, and many others), you will automatically be reimbursed, until you've spent a total of $300 on travel. In other words, Chase will pay for the first $300 in travel you spend each year with your card.

Better off downgrading to a no-AF card that might actually be useful- plus it keeps your credit line with chase (and any points you might have sitting around) alive.

I reached out to Chase to see if they would extend the time to 6 months for NEW sign ups. I was told they could not guarantee that it would be extended. Not worth the risk to be a new sign up right now IMHO.

My annual date is coming up and I still have my annual travel credit. I'm not traveling now because of what's going on. Any advice on what to use the credit for?

You mean the $300 credit on CSR?

It counts for anything travel. Monthly/annual subway? Buy a plane ticket for a future flight. Tho right now I'd go with SWA so easy to change.

They rejected my request. Just signed up 2 weeks ago. The world is shutdown and chase isn't sympathetic.

I received this e-mail right now:

Your bonus offer is extended
(for accounts opened from 1/1/2020 through 3/31/2020)
As we all adjust to the impacts of COVID-19, we want to make sure you have enough time to earn the new account bonus on your Chase Sapphire Preferred Card that you opened on February 3, 2020.

That's why we're extending the time for you to earn your bonus by 3 months — so you now have a total of 6 months from your account opening date to earn your new account bonus.
There's nothing you need to do to activate this extension – it's automatic.

Please stay safe and, as always, thank you for being our customer.

Applause
They rejected my request. I signed up two weeks ago.

Chase is extending the spend period as a courtesy for those who applied before the world shutdown. You applied while the world was already shutdown, so that's on you, not Chase.

True, but extending this incentivizes people to continue to apply for this travel credit card when people are not going to be traveling. Now people are less likely to apply knowing that for the next 3 months traveling will still be highly regulated and limited, thusly limited the opportunity to gain the bonus. Poor business decision on Chase's part.

This is nonsensical.

No travel is required at all to earn the bonus, and the points remain good as long as you have ANY chase UR card open, not just this one.

So the fact nobody is travelling the next few months has nothing at all to do with earning the bonus other than if you don't normally spend any money on anything else BUT travel.



Travel being shutdown is more of an issue for other, usually much more expensive, cards that have annual credits ONLY usable for travel- which isn't this card.

You're statement is also nonsensical as well.

This card's benefits include most of things that involve leisurely activities (dining out, private transit - Ubers/Lyft, hotels, etc). This card flourishes in a time of economic certainty. The current climate is unstable to say the least. Many persons will not be going out and spending large sums of money on things that this card rewards for simply due to people tend to be more frugal during trying times.

It's not intended to be an incentive, it's a courtesy. You think it would be a good business decision to attract new signups specifically targeting those who can't spend $4000 in 3 months? I don't.

Without question, yes. The current situation is temporary. Banks (and thusly credit card companies) want customers for the long-term. One of the greatest issues that banks face is customer retention.

Just because many customers "could" spend $4,000 in three months, doesn't mean they would go out of their way to do so. Especially during the current economic climate.
