The usual bonus for the Chase Sapphire Reserve card is to earn 60,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards BONUS POINTS offer after you spend $4,000 in the first 3 months.  However, this offer has been increased to 80,000 points with the same spend requirement.

This card has a hefty annual fee of $550 and additional cardholder fees of $75. However, it has a lot of good benefits.

You earn 3 points per $1 on Dining and 3 points per $1 on travel like airfare, hotels, cruises, rental cars, travel agencies, train tickets, taxis, tolls and more. (Click here for a complete definition of travel from Chase).

You earn 10x points per $1 on hotels and car rentals purchased through Chase Travel and 5x points per $1 on flights purchased through Chase Travel. Also, You earn 5x points per $1 on Lyft rides through March 2025.

And in addition to earning 2 points per dollar at restaurants and on travel, you’ll earn 1 point for every dollar you spend on all your other purchases.

Each anniversary year, automatically receive up to $300 in statement credits as reimbursement for travel-related purchases charged to your card.  Note, you do not earn points on the travel purchases that are credited by the $300.

You can enroll in Priority Pass Select at no additional cost.  This program gives you access to numerous airport lounges that are part of the Priority Pass Select Program.  You can bring in a maximum of two accompanying guests. For any additional guests, your card will be charged $27 per guest, per visit.

Receive a statement credit of up to $100 every 4 years as reimbursement for the application fee charged to your card for Global Entry or TSA Pre√

My favorite benefit-When you use points to redeem for cash, each point is worth $.01 (one cent), which means that 100 points equals $1 in redemption value.  However, each point you redeem for travel booked through Chase Ultimate Rewards is worth $.0150 (one and a half cents), which means that 100 points equals $1.50 in redemption value, and points are worth 50% more than if redeemed for cash.  For example, a $750 flight (or other travel purchase booked on the Chase Ultimate Rewards site) requires 50,000 points. (NOT 75,000)  Note, compare this to the Sapphire Preferred card where points can be redeemed for 1.25 cents each.  Read about how to redeem points through Ultimate Rewards here.

You pay no foreign transaction fees when you use your card on purchases made outside the United States.

You can transfer points to participating frequent travel programs with no transfer fees and at full 1:1 value – that means 1000 Ultimate Rewards points equal 1000 partner miles/points. Read about how to transfer points to travel programs here.

The card comes with very good travel insurance if you purchase a portion of your trip with your card. Read more here.

A huge shout out to CINDY GREENSTEIN, aka The Points Mom, for helping me book our flights to Greece using points. Money wise it would have cost $12k. I learned so much from her! Contact her. You will not be disappointed.
