Was approved for this card @80K signup bonus a couple weeks ago. Some notes:

This is a great card for anyone who travels or plans to soon travel!
Call your local branch and see if they offer 80K signup + first year fee waived. If you do apply in branch, allot at least 30 minutes for this Frown.
If you have a Peloton membership, note that the Preferred will credit you $60 total off fees, but I think only through June, so act quick!
I didn't get my card after a week, despite a 1-2 day delivery promise. I called in, and they said, oh, whoops, we forgot to ship it! (and they then indeed shipped it 2nd day air via UPS).
You'll get the most value from the 80K points BY FAR by transferring them strategically to airline/hotel partners (most often: United and Hyatt). Do some reading across blogs to learn more.
I know when I applied for this card, I did it in the branch and got a $125 grocery credit incentive. Basically every time I shopped at a grocery store I received a credit back until the $125 credit was maxed…. It may be worth it to call a banker & ask if they have that promo as it was only for in branch applications, not online & worth it to a trip to the bank, if you ask me!
I don't think there's been a better offer on the reserve in many years?

Outside of the SUB the CS > CSP used to be a no brainer, but with the higher AF on the CSR, and the improved benefits/earn on CSP it's a tougher choice now.


Today it's $155 more (removing the travel credit from the price difference) for CSR...

SUPER generously if we count the GE/TSA credit as $20 a year that drops it to $135/yr more for CSR.



For the $135 you get:

Priority Pass (still the good one that includes restaurants unlike Amex)

Marginally better travel insurance coverage

"free" roadside assitance (up to 4 calls a year, max $50 per call)

You do get significantly better purchase protection (10k per claim instead of $500- but then I'm buying most expensive stuff with a Citi card for 2 years of extra warranty anyway)

1.5x for your points in the travel portal vs 1.25 for CSP- but this is rarely a worthwhile use of points for most folks compare to transfers.

10x points (vs 5x on CSP) for cash spend in the travel portal or Chase Dining portals- but those again aren't frequently the ideal way to book for most folks anyway.



So as I say, when this was $35-55/yr it was easy... ONE 2 person use of priority pass at an airport restaurant more than covered this- if you get anything out of any other benefit you're golden.


At $135 it's much more marginal for many.

This 95$ annual fee should not be compared with, but even CSR may not be a match with amex depending upon travel usage.

Amex platinum is great for travel with much higher signup bonus (150k)/disney bundle/walmart+/loads of benefits but higher fees 695$.

I went to the branch today to open the account, the rep confirmed that first year fee waiver is applicable. However he was not able to apply as he mentioned system related issue. But I think somehow me being an authorized user on my wifes account (had done this to transfer my ultimate rewards points into united mileage plus account) is preventing from applying.

Should I go ahead and cancel authorizer user card? or should I try to apply online and forget $95 first year fee savings. Appreciate any help answer with my situation.

Last time I opened Chase Sapphire card was in Jan 2012, so definitely has been more than 48months since I got the bonus.

She can do also but why? Just for the 80k points on another 4k spend? Why not try amex or venture x (or 500$ on 2k spend at usbank)? Variety of benefits better for house isnt it?

You could downgrade to freedom and apply in 5 days too.

This is like asking why should he sign up for a FREE $1187.
She get 15k refer pts and he gets 80k. 95k x .0125(minimum worth) = $1187.​
