In this video we take a look at the Chase Sapphire Preferred and why the 100k historic high welcome bonus may be ending soon. If you can get this bonus then it is a great opportunity, as it is worth $1250 in free travel through the Chase travel portal and even more if you transfer to airlines and hotels.

First !
First comment!!
I saw that exact post on reddit! I hope Chase might have changed their mind to doing it or perhaps just used it briefly as a scare tactic to get more people to sign up. Either way I still want to refer a few friends/family now so they can get the bigger point bonus in case they do end up taking it away!
One of the best credit card offers this year! Hopefully everyone that wanted it already got the offer by now
Plot twist: they upgrade it to 200k points hopefully haha
I dont have enough expenses to make this card worth it 🙁
If I were at 0/24…
…I’d want to apply for this 5 times 😬💳
lmfao thats my birthday too
I just got this card with the 100,000 point welcome bonus. I did it at the right time lol.
or . . . Chase "leaked" it for a short period of time . . . just to draw attention to the card and offer? 😈
I’m 5/24 for two more months 💔
My chase mobile app says I’m pre approved for the Sapphire preferred but when I click on it to apply, the page says pre qualified, I know there’s a big difference so what do you guys think am I pre approved or pre qualified?
Just got the card friday. I still qualify for the 100k right?
UPDATE: TPG reached out to Chase and got a confirmation that the bonus is indeed ending on October 6th. i.e. October 6th (Wednesday) will be the last day you can apply for it.
I just applied and was approved today, so thanks either way…
100K Bonus Points is amazing! $1,000 in cash back or $1,250 to $2,000 value when redeemed for travel/transfer partners is simply beautiful…hope they're up'ing it even higher though (not likely but let's hope)
I just checked and the Chase ad is still showing up first. States "Ends in 3 days" as of today 10/4/21.
Damn. About to get an auto loan for a new car. Would this inquiry make a difference on that? I was gonna do this after the car stuff was done and now I have no time 😭
Oh no.. I’m stuck in 5/24 till November.
Happy Birthday Ben……. We share the same October day !!! I got the Chase Sapphire Preferred because of your reviews. Thanks for your great videos.
I just tiered down my Sapphire Reserve card to a Freedom on Saturday. The Chase customer service rep advised me to wait 15 to 30 days to apply to the Sapphire Preferred card – so my account is fully cleared. Now I’m not sire what to do – should I simply wait it out and apply in bank towards the end of the month? How can I verify if the promotion will continue in bank?
That’s my luck!! Still in Chase 5/24 hell until the end of the year.
Glad my wife applied and got the bonus when she did.
I got in on the 100K bonus offer with no fee in year 1 applying at the bank, plus being eligible for the $50 hotel credit. Great deal. That being said, eventually, the bonus offer will likely rise again. That's what tends to happen over time.
Apply at a Chase branch and avoided the fee
I was on the fence but now I'll apply
Well. I guess I won’t be able to snag that good signup bonus this year due to short credit history.
All good things must come to an end….until they have a "new all time offer" of 150k points.
I was able to beat the 5/24 rule and got approved for the Sapphire Preferred today! Technically I'm at 6/24 today if they count an account that I opened and closed the same day, and I have one falling off in 2 weeks. I had my eye on this bonus so when you said it was going away, I had to apply. I got approved instantly! Thanks Shifu!
Do authorize user get disqualified from further bonus points from Amex if they apply in the future?
As of 10/7, it's over. The offer is now only 60K points.
Happy Birthday!
I missed it by 2 days
So upset I missed this.
Darnit. Missed it. Ah well. Probably wouldn't have gotten accepted anyway, knowing Chase.
I missed it. But it'll be January 2023 before I'm under 5/24. Other deals will come and go by then.
