- Chase Sapphire signing bonus was reduced from 25,000 points to 10,000 points
- Chase Borders 321 Visa signing bonus was reduced from 3,000 points to 1,000 points
Chase has added several new travel cards:
- Chase Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards Card, featuring a sign on bonus of half a domestic roundtrip ticket, plus another half if you are approved for a balance transfer
- Chase Slate, which is a generic card with no rewards, and some useless tools to monitor which parts of your statements you are not paying off
- Chase Marriott Rewards Signature Card, which rank well because of their generous sign on bonus of 20,000 points + a free night’s stay. The more exclusive Chase Marriott Rewards Premiere Card offers 2x points at restaurants as well, but has a higher annual fee.
- Chase Priority Club Rewards Signature is a hotel card for InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, Hotel Indigo, Holiday Inn, Staybridge Suites, and Candlewood Suites. The card offers a 10,000 point bonus each year when you spend more than $15,000, on top of the 1 point per $1 spent you earn on a normal basis. The card receives 3x points when used at the aforementioned Priority Club Hotels.
