šŸšØ Red Alert: Our most popular card just upped its game... again

We've never seen two offers so close to each other on the same card like this...

Lookā€¦

I pride myself on my points and miles skills, which have taken me far. But Iā€™m not ashamed to admit when Iā€™m wrong.

For exampleā€¦ two months ago, I said:

The Chase Sapphire PreferredĀ® Card only increases its offer once every year, so nowā€™s your last chance to get an elevated offer for a while.

As it turns out, THAT WAS WRONG.

For the first time ever, the Chase Sapphire PreferredĀ® card has bestowed unto us a unique and very tasty welcome offer that combines points with cold, hard cash. šŸ¤‘

The Chase Sapphire PreferredĀ® Card

Itā€™sā€¦ itā€™sā€¦ so beautiful šŸ„²

For a limited time, you can earn 60,000 Chase points and a $300 Chase Travelā„  credit after spending $4,000 within the first three months of card holdership.

To be clear, theyā€™ve kept the EXACT spending requirement but added a fat $300 Chase Travel credit to this cardā€™s offer šŸ™Œ

Weā€™ve raved for years about how this card is the best card for basically anyone, whether youā€™re a points and miles beginner or a veteran.

In fact, everyone on the Daily Drop team has had this card in their wallet, which weā€™re always using to transfer points to Chaseā€™s many transfer partners šŸ‘‡

Hereā€™s why this offer is so appealingā€¦

Earlier this year, the Chase Sapphire PreferredĀ® Card offered 75,000 Chase points for signing up and meeting the minimum spend, which is 15,000 more points than nowā€¦

Those 15,000 extra points were actually worth $187.50 when booking travel through Chase (a value of 1.25 cents per point).

Thanks to the magic of arithmetic, itā€™s clear that this offer is significantly better, given the new $300 Chase Travel credit.

That credit can be used to book flights and hotels all over the world with ease.

A couple of free nights in Scotland, anyone?

Since the card only has a $95 annual fee, this credit also makes it a no-brainer to hold this card because it pays for the entire annual fee three times over šŸŽ‰

Donā€™t forget that the Chase Sapphire PreferredĀ® Card also comes with an annual $50 hotel credit, too.

So hereā€™s the bottom line:

We have been SO SPOILED by these welcome offers coming outā€”offering us a bunch of points and travel credits to make it easier than ever to justify applying for a new low-annual-fee card.

If you missed out on the offer last time around, today is your lucky day!

See you next time, folks. āœŒļø
