CSP is my favorite low point Annual Fee Travel Card. In addition to being welcome bonuses, I like to book an annual $50 statement credit for hotel booking through the ChaseTravel℠ portal, as well as Trip cancellation and interruption insurance. I’ve had a card for about two years and it saved me a lot of money for flights and hotels, especially when I get a welcome bonus.
We don’t have an expiration date for the quote, but I don’t recommend waiting as Chase’s enhanced welcome bonus quotes usually don’t last long. If you want to earn this travel card, this is something I love and how to maximize 100,000 welcome bonus points.
How I’m spending Chase Sapphire prefers 100,000 welcome bonus
I’ll pursue new ones Welcome bonus I myself, but I heard about Chase’s 48-month rule. If you have received a welcome bonus on your Chase Sapphire card over the past four years, you won’t be able to get a new bonus. However, since I’ve had a card for two years and I’ve used it responsibly, I reached out to chase and was waiting for a decision. This quote is so good, don’t ask.
Chase points are usually 1% per point, but if you redeem them in the Chase Travel Portal, you get more value, where points grow at 1.25 cents. That would make these 100,000 bonus points worth $1,250.
Put down my hand and I will use these indexes to fly. Suppose I want to book Round trip economic ticket For my family of four from Charlotte, North Carolina to New York City (June 4-June 8). If I book through Chase Travel Portal, it costs about $1,016. So I have enough points to pay for my entire family’s ticket.
You can also book hotels, car rentals and cruises at increased reward prices.
Be sure to look for deals and other redemption options before booking through Chase Travel Portal. Chase has Airline and hotel partners If you transfer points, you can provide a higher redemption rate. You can get the most revenue by transferring partners, but you can still get extra redemption value when booking on Chase’s portal.
Other ways to redeem the chase bonus
If you don’t have an upcoming trip, there are other redemption options, but the value is lower. For example, you can redeemed a $1,000 declaration credit limit for each point to reduce your credit card balance.
Chase also has a “reward” plan that allows you to use rewards at a rate of 1.25% per point from a declared credit purchased from selected categories. However, this offer is only available for select charities.
Bottom line
If you are considering the preferred Chase Sapphire, first check out the other features of the card. Welcome bonuses are usually a one-time deal, so you need to make sure that the card is worth more than the bonus reward and that your regular spending offsets the $95 annual fee.
Most importantly, don’t accumulate debts that try to earn credit card rewards. The average credit card interest rate is More than 20%so any value you receive from the reward will be eliminated by the interest you incurred, leaving you in debt.
