The Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card has launched a new offer featuring its highest-ever welcome bonus, coinciding with a significant update to the card's benefits. New applicants can earn 100,000 bonus points and a $500 Chase Travel credit after spending $5,000 within the first three months from account opening.

Chase Ultimate Rewards points are highly valued, with The Points Guy (TPG) estimating them at 2.05 cents per point as of June 2025. Despite an increase in the annual fee to $795, the card's extensive premium benefits continue to position it as a leading choice for frequent travelers.

A representative from Chase confirmed that "Beginning June 23, 2025, you will be able to have both the Sapphire Reserve and Sapphire Preferred cards. New account bonus offer eligibility for either card will be based on factors including previously earned bonus offers and the number of cards opened and closed, among others."

The current offer marks the first time since its launch in 2016 that the Sapphire Reserve has featured a 100,000-point welcome bonus. The addition of a $500 Chase Travel credit enhances this offering further.

Potential applicants should note new restrictions on earning bonuses within the Sapphire family. Those who have previously received bonuses may not be eligible again under these updated terms.

Additional benefits include access to Chase Sapphire lounges and Priority Pass Select membership. Authorized users can also enjoy lounge access for themselves and up to two guests for an additional fee of $195.

In conclusion, those interested in premium travel rewards cards might find this offer appealing due to its substantial welcome bonus and travel perks. However, it's crucial to assess how these align with personal spending habits before applying.
