Chase Sapphire Preferred $500 – $625 Sign Up Bonus

Posted by Madison on June 2, 2017

I mentioned in my $4,927+ Credit Card Application Spree for Summer Travel that I was skipping the Chase Sapphire Preferred card because of the 5/24 rule (see more about that below).

However, if you are just starting out in pursuing sign up bonuses on credit cards, or if you haven’t opened lots of new cards like I have, it’s a great offer!

The signup bonus on the Chase Sapphire Preferred card is 50,000 bonus points. You can redeem the points for cash, gift cards or travel; the points are worth $625 in travel or $500 cash back.

It’s our Free Money offer this week.

Comments to Chase Sapphire Preferred $500 – $625 Sign Up Bonus

  1. I would so love to do this but applied for the Chase Freedom card recently and was denied because I have too many accounts with them. Apparently 3 (Amazon, Southwest, and one that was sold by WAMU) is too many! Bummer…
