Chase ultimate rewards points are worth 50% more on apple products with sapphire reserve and 25% more on apple products with sapphire preferred or ink business preferred.

I realize many would rather use them for travel, but we don't travel and pay yourself back has been lousy.

Unfortunately, it's kind of a fake value, as you can get most apple products at discounts nowadays. So your value is still less than the 1.5 or 1.25 than they make you believe it is.
some more example
for my upcoming trip to Japan in Jun
Transfer 10K to AVIOS for redeem of 2 domestic Japan ticket worth $200 USD
1 point to 2 cents

Transfer 47K to Virgin Atlantic (with chase 30% transfer bonus) for a FIRST CLASS ticket from HND-JFK worth $5000 USD
1 point to 10.6 cents
Setting aside you being aggressive for no reason.. I think any nay-sayers on this deal are focused on the opportunity cost. If you value your points at 1 cent per point, then I agree that AirPods for about 20k points is fantastic. But it's relatively easy to get $300 of value out of 20k Chase UR points by transferring to an airline. And sometimes even higher than that by transferring to hotel/airline for point redemption towards a high-end flight or hotel stay. So 20k Chase UR points, with either a Sapphire Preferred or Reserve card, are worth somewhere between $300 and $700. So the opportunity cost is you getting AirPods for 20k points.. vs a flight or hotel stay that would cost you 2-3x the cost of the AirPods.

Quote from kabukicho :
say... if it's 25% on the CSP for apple products and 25% PYB on airbnb at 25%

and on the CSR it's 50% for apple products and 50% PYB on airbnb..


It's still better to do the PYB on either card, because you are getting chase points for initially purchasing the airbnb....

In contrast, you don't get points, but are using points, to buy the apple products.

so we would come out ahead leaving the apple offer alone. Unless I am missing something?



But your original post you quote is written as if you get 25% for one and 50% for the other, when in fact it's the same % for both.

That said, yes, on the SAME card your points are marginally better used for PYB with airbnb than for buying apple products-- assuming you planned to actually spend on both things on the same card.


Of course if you're just looking for "things that are a higher value use of points" than either- that's already been discussed... hotel and airline transfers.

Update:
I ordered an iPhone 14 Pro through this deal, on October 16.
Currently, they are telling me it will not ship until November 30.
Apple says I can order the exact same phone and pick it up in-store today, or they will ship me one and I'll get it on Monday.

I called Chase and they have no explanation at all, no way to check the status of my order, nothing. Very frustrating to be mistreated like this.

Same here. I read in the past that they take forever to ship, but I didn't expect them to change the shipping dates on me. But I guess it's worth the wait to save 25%.

EDIT: Nevermind, I logged out for 10 minutes, came back, and the Points DID work, however, as others have noted, the Shipment times are WAY beyond the apple store. Considering that according to TPG this is a bad-or-so-so use of points compared to travel, and with Black Friday around the corner, I'm just going to try and purchase these 2 items black friday week on a discount. Chase deal sounded great, but really with that lead time and Travel in our future, nah I won't bother.

previous post: Someone with Chase Points knowledg help me out here; I just got a Sapphire card, and was already planning to buy 2 apple products this month. I already have had Chase Freedom, and Freedom Unlimited card for years, so lots of points. I transferred some of those points to the Sapphire for my Apple purchase. When I got to checkout, it says my card has No Points, even though the top of the Apple page says I DO have points. Do I just need to wait a day for the points to ACTUALLY tranfer on the back end??

Ordered the 14 pro max on 10/15 expecting it to be a little longer than the 2-3 week estimate. Gave them a call today and was given an updated delivery 12/8. It's a good thing I don't need the phone urgently or else this ~8-week wait will be killing me. I wish they gave delivery delayed emails instead of having me call them.

I'm just hoping mine comes before Christmas at this point.
