It's back! Limited Time Offer!
Your points are worth 10%-50% more
Until 11/30/23 or while supplies last, your Chase points are worth more when you redeem for any product on the Apple® Ultimate Rewards® Store.*

Chase Sapphire Preferred is 25% more.
Chase Freedom Unlimited is 10% more.

https://ultimaterewardspoints.chase.com/


For example:

The $1199 iPhone Prom Max is 79,900 points (plus tax if applicable) if you have the Reserve (so retail * 66.7 points). Effectively 1/3 off at a penny per point.

If you have a card with a $99 ish annual fee, I suspect you get 25% extra (so retail * 80 points). Effectively 20% off at a penny per point.

If you have a no-annual-fee card, you likely get 10% extra (so retail * 91 points). About 9% off at a penny per point.
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

But what if you aren't traveling much and need a new iPhone? Not everyone is looking for a 4 cent pp redemption on a round trip business class flight to Zimbabwe. Why not buy airline gift cards when they go on sale? (Like the recent Southwest cards at Costco).

Also worth noting you get extended warranty and purchase protection when you pay with points (you don't when you pay with gift cards).
You are really better off buying apple gift cards when they have promos or Amex offers to buy Apple giftcards for 20% to 25% off and using the UR points for travel to maximize the value.
I can get an iphone 15 pro for 66,600 points ($660 cash value points)

So you got it from the metro deal? It's not a used phone I can buy to use for trade-in?
When you're trading in a phone it doesn't matter if it's brand new or used, just as long as it works.

Quote from MonkRX :
I agree with your comments, but then you really shouldn't have CSR or CSP. The chase URP system is basically designed around collecting URP points across all their products and redeeming towards travel on a sapphire card. @MyDiscover is still correct. The best points to dollar ratio is still in travel redemptions, so its best to use the points there and use the saved cash to purchase other things.

This deal is still a deal, its better than the normal redemption ratio. Its an option, but hes doing good comparing it to whats typically available. His original message:



So just be aware that if you're looking for the best points to cash ratio, this isn't the best available.

I recently learned that Chase business premier limits the points transfer to CSR or any other Chase card or travel partners. It seems to be a new addition to their business line with an annual fee of $199. None of the reps were aware of this limitation at the time of opening !

Ordered 2 Pro Max's early yesterday. Both of them said 6-8 weeks shipping when I placed the order (and when I checked the status immediately after placing the order). Checked the status just now and one says "Shipping availability at time of order: 11/24/2023" and the other says "Shipping availability at time of order: 12/1/2023". Those are pretty specific dates so hopefully that means we're looking at more of a 3-4 week shipping timeframe instead of 6-8 weeks.

Take the link in your confirmation email under the "Order Status" section. It's going to want to try and open the link in the Chase App, but don't do that.

Thanks! Mine says 11/24. I'll be pleased if I get it before 12/24. Shows what managing expectations with "6-8 weeks" shipping time gets the seller.

Quote from abner5 :
Hilariously specific example and on point, no one would pay these inflated business class fares, yet they keep using them for conversion ratio purposes. Like the inflated msrp on most Amazon slickdeals!!!!
Business and first class usually full on flights I take. A handful are upgrades or rewards redemptions but not all. Airlines still have to compete with each other on fares.

Just because you're unwilling to pay the profit margin on business class flights and ARE willing to pay it for Apple products doesn't make one "over inflated" and the other not. Both are market rate retail cost. You are an imperfect consumer.

Quote from robertw477 :
I have been in the miles and points community a long time. While it has changed due to social media and now there are maybe a few more younger players I can tell you the following. The people who are in the highest income brackets love miles and points. The miles and points person tends to get analytical with things. I can state that anyone with minimal time can get a free nice vacation every yr with airfare, hotels rental car if needed covered. It doesnt have to be a luxury experience all the way, or it can be. Thats the easy pick up. I know some insanely wealthy people (top 1 percenters) who love to get that free nice room and flight. So the overall demographics of some of the meetups around the country definitely skew to higher income brackets. There is truth in many of the statements. Would I pay 15K round trip for that Cathay Pacific flight in First. Once you experience it once, is all it takes. Instead of flying in misery in a metal tube balled up on the back, you are treated like a celebrity with fine china, a huge space and the flight experience becomes part of the vacation. Then you stay in a really nice hotel. Some people dont like to travel or dont want to go outside the US. Part of the reason they may not like it, is thinking about a long flight to Europe etc in coach. There are definitely strategies and it doesnt mean merely because you have points that you can easily find that trip in business class to Australia or First Class to Hawaii any time you want. So it is planning and patience, or booking a trip way out or last minute. The best part is you can cancel with zero cost or a few dollars. That makes this sort of travel more flexible than cash. If a better flight or route opens up, you can do it.
What's the best resource for learning basic strategy?

Using this method, will we be able to take advantage of Apple's Black Friday promo as well?
