I’ve watched the same thing happen for almost 20 years.<\/p>\n

Someone tells me they wish they could travel more using points and miles<\/a><\/span> as I do, but that they assume it’s too complicated or put off even getting started.<\/p>\n

Then they take the leap. They finally sign up for a rewards card, earn a welcome bonus and book that first trip to Hawaii, Europe or somewhere they never thought they could afford.<\/p>\n

After that, they’re hooked.<\/p>\n

The hardest part isn’t finding an amazing redemption. It’s deciding you’re finally ready to start.<\/p>\n

That’s one of the biggest reasons we’ve written about this limited-time Chase Sapphire Preferred\u00ae Card<\/a><\/span> (see rates and fees<\/a><\/span>) offer more than we normally would.<\/p>\n

\n

Last chance: Earn 100,000 bonus points<\/a><\/span> on the Chase Sapphire Preferred after spending $5,000 on purchases in the first three months from account opening. Offer ends on July 30 at 3 p.m. ET.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

It’s not just because 100,000 points is a big number. It’s because I’ve seen what happens when someone finally has enough points to stop dreaming about that trip and actually book it.<\/p>\n

Instead of slowly earning toward a goal over several years, a welcome bonus like this can put that first award trip within reach almost immediately. And once someone experiences that first redemption, they almost never look back.<\/p>\n

Now we’re down to the final few days to decide whether this offer, worth more than $2,000 according to TPG’s July 2026 valuations<\/a><\/span>, is right for you.<\/p>\n

As someone who’s been doing this for nearly two decades, I don’t say this lightly: I think this is one of the best values I’ve seen on a $95 card.<\/p>\n

But I want you to feel good<\/em> about whatever you decide, so here are the three reasons I think this can be the card \u2014 and the bonus \u2014 that really changes the game for you<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

You can do a whole lot with a rare 100,000-point bonus<\/h2>\n

The easiest way to understand why points and miles are so powerful is to actually have enough of them to book something amazing. And 100,000 Chase points qualify as a very nice stash.<\/p>\n

That’s exactly what makes a 100,000-point welcome bonus<\/a><\/span> so different.<\/p>\n

Instead of slowly collecting points over several years, you suddenly have enough to book trips like these:<\/p>\n

Whether you redeem through Chase Travel or transfer your points to partners like United, World of Hyatt, Air Canada Aeroplan and others, the flexibility is one of the biggest reasons I’ve personally recommended Ultimate Rewards points for so many years.<\/p>\n

The card only costs $95 per year<\/h2>\n

The Chase Sapphire Preferred<\/a><\/span> still has a $95 annual fee, the same price it launched with nearly 17 years ago.<\/p>\n

Honestly, I can’t think of much else that’s managed to avoid inflation for nearly two decades.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, annual fees on many premium travel cards have climbed dramatically.<\/p>\n

While premium travel cards charging $700 or $800 a year can absolutely make sense for some travelers, that’s not where I’d recommend most people start.<\/p>\n

That’s one of the reasons I’ve continued recommending the Sapphire Preferred year after year. It delivers an incredible amount of value without asking you to commit to a sky-high annual fee from day one.<\/p>\n

And in fact, you can more than offset that annual fee each year with the newly increased annual $100 Chase Travel hotel credit<\/a><\/span> that comes with the card. There’s no minimum spend or minimum stay requirement, making it incredibly easy to use.<\/p>\n

The value doesn’t stop after 100,000 Ultimate Rewards points<\/h2>\n

The welcome bonus may be what gets people excited about the Chase Sapphire Preferred<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Between the ongoing bonus categories, strong travel protections and flexible Ultimate Rewards points, it’s the kind of card that’s easy to keep using long after you’ve redeemed those first 100,000 points.<\/p>\n

The travel protections include:<\/p>\n
