Best Ever Bonus Coming Soon for Chase Sapphire Preferred
One of the most popular Chase cards, the Chase Sapphire Preferred, currently has a slightly improved offer. Besides the usual 60,000 Ultimate Rewards points, there’s also a $50 credit for grocery purchases. But, soon the bonus will get even better, with an extra 20,000 points. Click here for details and our full review of the card and let’s see when you will be able to get this new offer.
UPDATE 3/22: Now live – you have to log into your account to get the offer to show up. Link to log in below in red.

- Annual fee of $95 is not waived.
This offer is not available yet. It goes live on March 21, online and in-branch, as Doctor of Credit reports. In-branch you could possibly have the annual fee waived as well. Or you can wait for the welcome offer to become available through referrals.

I found the link in my account, but I want my husband to refer me. THAT link is still only offering 60,000 points. Any idea if it will change in the next day or two to reflect the 80,000 points?
I would imagine in the next few weeks it will hit the referrals
The offer is on my Chase Credit Cards page after logging in to the Chase website. I’ll wait a week or two to see if in-branch applications waive the $95 first year annual fee.
Trying to find the link and I’d also like to refer friends. Doesn’t seem to be anything as of 3/22.
Referrals are not undated yet – you need to log into your account to get the offer right now. The link to sign in is in red above.
Question about the 48mo rule. Let’s say I last applied Jan 1, 2017, got bonus on Apr 1, 2017. Is it safe to apply April 2, 2021, or would you leave some buffer time in there? I don’t want to leave too much extra time in case offer gets pulled… but obviously want to make sure to get the bonus. Thanks!
You can call and they will tell you.
You should be fine on April 2nd but waiting a week or two wouldn’t hurt either imo
I have had this card for over 5 years. Is it ok to cancel and re apply?
Yeah just has to be 48 months since you got the welcome offer and you can not have any other Sapphire products when applying (CSR etc)
I just referred my dad on March 1st. Do you think he has a chance to get the 80k via secure message? Thanks
Worth a try – Chase is usually pretty good about matching during the welcome offer period.
I referred by husband on March 11, which I think was one day before this new offer was reported on the blog. He just got the card and we called Chase today before he activated it. We are longtime Chase customers since mid-80s (actually had individual accounts before that but Chase only shows when we opened our joint acct.). And today is actually husband’s birthday. He asked if he could be matched to the new offer, and was given a flat NO, not possible, referenced date he applied.
So I am just watching to make sure I get the referral 15K (have sceenshots).
We also could not get a CSR retention offer you posted about a few months ago so we cancelled that, and just decided to go for the CSP. I can probably upgrade my CSP to CSR if we start to travel overseas again.
Bigger issue for use is having about 14 free night certs that expire between Aug 1 and Jan. (first world problems……)
And to followup further: Send a secure message asking to be matched. Same result – apparently Chase isn’t going to budge on this.
If anyone gets matched, I hope you will post so we can circle back to Chase. TIA.
