Revamped Chase Sapphire Reserve Now Live

Revamped Chase Sapphire Reserve Now Live

Chase today officially launched the revamped Chase Sapphire Reserve card which now has an annual fee of $795 and a welcome bonus of 100,000 points and a $500 Chase Travel credit. That is indeed the best ever bonus on this card, but probably not as high as many people expected with the increased annual fee.

The cards also comes with several monthly and annual credits that Chase says are worth $2,700 in annual cardmember value. Most people will struggle to get much value out of those credits, but some of them are actually useful. Let’s see the full details

Welcome Bonus

  • For a limited time, new cardmembers can receive our highest ever acquisition offer of 100,000 points and a $500 Chase Travel credit, after spending $5,000 in the first three months.
  • DIRECT LINK TO OFFER

Chase now lets you get the Chase Sapphire Reserve card even if you currently have another Sapphire card, but you will not receive the welcome bonus. Chase will inform you if you are eligible during the application process and you will have the opportunity to withdraw your application.

Annual Fee

The annual fee is now $795 with a $195 annual fee for authorized user cards.

Cardmembers who applied prior to June 23, 2025, will experience the new benefits and features starting October 26, 2025. Their annual fee will be adjusted to $795 on their next anniversary date following October 26, 2025.
