Nice deal, Pity I still have the Ink Business Preferred active and just applied for Freedom Unlimited... A word of caution with their UR Travel service. I had very negative experience with them lately.

On one occasion, I planned my conference and booked the hotel with UR Travel instead of using the conference link. The price was similar, so I decided to earn a few points... That was bad choice because:

They charged the full amount immediately instead of placing a hold.
When I wanted to shorten my stay, it took me almost 2 hour on the phone to change it. And even then, their portal still shows the old travel dates and it took them 2 weeks to refund the difference, so that I had to pay the balance first.
On the other occasion, I tried to book a cruise with them - even worse headache. They do have some cruises online but not all of them. And definitely they don't have any of the optional packages the cruise lines now have to sweeten the deal. My cruise was not available on the portal so I ended up spending 2-3 hours on the phone with very ignorant UR rewards employee who wanted nothing more than to end the call.

And most importantly... The Ultimate Rewards Travel has been outsorurced abroad, to multiple call centers in at least 2 multiple locations (I heard 2 different type of accents, both equally bad). The UR Travel call center used to be 100% English speaking, very knowledgeable, very nice and attentive representatives. Not anymore. Upon your call you are getting to the badly accented employee who is clueless as to what you are asking such that you have to repeat yourself 2-3 times. Mid you, English is my second language too, so I don't mind repeating, knowing that my accent is also bad. But I also know that it is not that bad so I have to repeat myself so much so it gets tiring. There is also bad lag between you talking and call center responding. This is confirmed on every occasion I had to interact with them. The only way to solve this is to immediately request the US Representative. At least for now this works, but who knows for how long.
Thanks for the heads up. Refer my wife to sign up. That's 15k for referral and 80,000 once the spending requirements are met.
That's what OP said. 80k + 10k in branch.

Branch is better. 10k more points. Took literally 5 minutes. No appointment needed. Don't miss 10k additional points by doing it online.

How do you get $10K more at branch?

Maybe this has been discussed but can you combo referrals, in-branch "bonus" etc? Or is it referral branch bonus?

Right now using my referral link I can see: Earn 80,000 bonus points after you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening — that's $1,000 toward travel when you redeem through Chase Ultimate Rewards®.*

That would give me 15k pts if I apply for my wife, if I consider the points indistinguishable that's 95k pts. rather than 90k (80+10k branch bonus, that apparently also needs more spending)

This is exactly why I don't like using 3rd party portals for travel. If you need to change something that might be basically trivial if booked directly, involving a 3rd party can make it a nightmare. If I ever use points for travel, I choose the simplest, least-complicated means of using them, purely just in case I do need to make a change, the likelihood of it being fubar is lower. As for cruises, you're right - cruise pricing is basically set by the cruise line, but where booking differs is in any additional offers - like cash back, onboard credits, etc. That's the one time I'll choose to use a TA simply because the discounts are high enough to make the risk worth it.

Discussed a few times now- they do not stack.

I don't typically use the portal simply because you can get a ton more value doing point transfers- plus you're ALSO direct booking (with points instead of cash) that way so you'd also directly get any elite benefits one might have with the airline (or hotel)

No.

New card signup bonuses require signing up for a new card.

You can't refer your wife for a Sapphire card if you have a freedom card. Referral is for like cards only

Does anyone know how you can check if you're eligible for an account bonus? Would love to sign up but don't want to risk not getting the bonus.

3x groceries … ONLiNE… they snuck that in there. 👎🏽

The sign up bonus is great but the potential for generating points is lackluster. If youre booking travel through chase youre probably getting ripped off. Imo if you go to costco with any frequency, the costco visa is a superior card. Hold this one for less than a year , get the sign up bonus, and dump it.

I have the original Chase Freedom card and the Chase Freedom Unlimited card. If I want the Chase Sapphire Preferred and want to eventually downgrade, can I downgrade to the Chase Freedom Flex?

This portal used to be provide the value added. But not anymore. Though for fairness sake, I was able to cancel the plane tickets for which the price went down within 24 hours and rebook the same seats at a lower price.

This bonus is a nice one. If you use the points properly you can get 2x the value by transferring them to airlines and hyatt hotels. I have had great results doing that. If you cash out the points for dollars you really drop the ball.(rookie mistake). This is a great opportunity.
