The Chase Sapphire Preferred has enhanced its welcome offer with 100,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points for a limited time. This is a U.S. credit card that is not available in Canada. However, it may interest Canadians who are already accustomed to applying for cards in the United States.
If you have a U.S. credit file, this offer becomes a concrete way to diversify your points. For full details on U.S. cards and programs, our Milesopedia.us site is your reference. And for your applications here in Canada, see our best credit cards page.
The Chase Sapphire Preferred offers 100,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points after spending $5,000 USD within the first three months of account opening. Additionally, this is a limited-time offer with no announced end date.
Using a conservative valuation of 1.7 cents per point, this bonus is worth approximately $1,700 USD in travel. Thus, depending on how you redeem the points, the actual value can increase further.
This offer targets a specific audience. Indeed, to obtain a Chase card in the United States, you must meet several conditions.
Chase Ultimate Rewards points are a currency distinct from the usual Canadian programs. As a result, they nicely complement a portfolio already stocked with Aeroplan points or American Express Membership Rewards.
You can transfer these points to several airline and hotel partners, most at a 1:1 ratio. Several are useful for Canadian travelers:
For example, a transfer to an airline partner like Flying Blue or Aeroplan can cover a business class flight. To better understand this program, consult our Chase Ultimate Rewards guide.
Beyond the bonus, the card offers an attractive earning structure and useful travel benefits:
Additionally, your points are worth 25% more when you book travel through the Chase Travel portal. You can also transfer them to partners to aim for higher value. Finally, travel protections have been enhanced with the addition of emergency evacuation and transportation.
