Chase Sapphire Preferred®

Unlock a world of travel rewards with the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card. Earn 2x points on dining and travel, plus a generous sign-up bonus to kickstart your adventures. Enjoy no foreign transaction fees and flexible redemption options through the Chase Ultimate Rewards® portal. This card is your passport to exciting experiences and unbeatable value.

Application Pending? Check your status online at Chase.com/Customer-Center/Check my app status or by calling 1-888-609-7805 or 1-888-338-2586. Sometimes, all they need is a quick verification.

Thinking About 2 Cards? If you get approved for one Chase card, try applying for a second on the same day. If your first application is still pending, wait for it to be approved before applying for another.

Application Declined? You have 30 days to request reconsideration by calling 1-888-609-7805. If you call the same day you applied, there won’t be another hard credit check. Keep in mind, if it's due to the Chase 5/24 rule, they likely won’t reconsider.

Approval Rules: Chase typically declines if you’ve opened 5 new credit cards in the last 24 months. They usually approve up to 2 Chase cards within 30 days, counting business and personal cards separately. Read more about the Chase 5/24 rule and how to review your report.

Welcome Offer Eligibility: Chase might not approve you if you’ve already gotten a welcome bonus on the Chase Ink Cash card for the same business in the last 24 months. But if you do get approved, you’ll still get the bonus. You can still get approved and receive the bonus even if you’ve had a bonus from other Chase Ink cards (like Ink Preferred, Ink Premier, or Ink Unlimited) within 24 months. You can also apply for the same card for a different business, even with the same owner, and get the bonus within 24 months.
Downgrade Options

The Chase Sapphire Preferred card can be downgraded to Freedom Unlimited ($0), Freedom Flex ($0), or to the Sapphire ($0) - only available via product change. Please note, Chase will only allow you to downgrade the card after 12 months of account opening.

Getting your card
Rescore your report: To update your balance off-cycle, call 1-888-682-8361. If you pay your balance to zero, Chase will automatically update your report within 48 hours.

When applying for a new credit card, keep your balances below 10% of your limit on each existing card. Pay down balances and wait for each card's closing date, avoiding new charges. Some banks let you update balances anytime by phone, and Chase will automatically report a $0 balance after payment.

What's the difference between a credit freeze and a credit lock on Experian?
There is no actual difference. By law, a freeze needs to be offered for free. Experian wants to charge you so they offer a freeze for free but for a lock they want you to pay a membership. They both do the same thing
Is it possible to reallocate my credit limit from a personal Chase card to a business card?
No, you can only transfer credit limits from personal to personal or from business to business within Chase.
Does obtaining a credit limit increase from Chase involve a credit check?
No, Chase does not pull credit for a credit limit increase.
