Costco and WF propel offer 3% on travel and food. Plus many other benefits. What am I missing?
Thanks for explaining. It makes sense!
It depends on when was the last time you got the bonus - not when you closed the account. You need to wait 48months after your bonus got posted on your account.

It's not worth keeping after the bonus.
There's 2 routes after 1 year:
If you are someone who travels significantly, upgrade to the CSR. If offers 3x in those categories, plus a slew of other travel related benefits and credits, and still allows point transfers (which free chase cards do not) that help maximize travel value of these points.
If you do not travel significantly then downgrade to a no annual fee card.
CSR: 100K points for $595 annual fee
CSP: 80K points + $50 cash back: $95 annual fee (waived) if applied at branch.
It doesn't take rocket science to figure this one out.
Is the he fee waived for the life of the card if applied at branch or just the first year?

Check out The Points Guy website. He values Chase Ultimate Reward Points at 2 cent per point, so 2pt x 2 cent ea = 4 cents value, plus 25% bonus =5 cent value, vs a straight 3 cents Costco.
Yes, having a Freedom shouldn't affect your ability to get a Sapphire card and bonus.
Correct. Eligible as long as you haven't had any chase sapphire bonus within 4 years and you currently can't have any other chase sapphire card.
Once you apply. Transfer your chase freedom points to this card. Will be worth more.
The max value of Chase Ultimate Rewards is 1.25 cents per points, period.
