@u_taitata652 Год назад

CSP effective AF $95 -$50 hotel credit = $45 is very easy to do so without staying at the hotel. Here is how ... 1. Book the hotel through Chase travel portal that cost $50 or more ... - Make sure you choose a refundable reservation. - Some hotels would have a cancellation due date. You should plan a reservation far out. 2. Wait for $50 credit post on your statement credit, then cancel a reservation. $50 hotel credit will stay. You're welcome

@michaelgrayson409 Год назад

Worked for me this year. 👍🏼

@MarkReese Год назад

Nice workaround!

@ramenandgyoza702 12 дней назад

Thank you for the hack! 🙌

@docsays Год назад

I think the question becomes “does priority pass, better insurance & +0.25 cpp justify the $455 difference between CSP & CSR?” In my case I don’t travel enough yet to benefit from the CSR, so im good with the CSP.

@MarkReese Год назад

Good way to look at it 👍

@SpencerJohnsonOfficial Год назад

I'd say the CSP is one if not the easiest beginner travel cards to justify for my personal use case. However, I've definitely considered product changing it to the CSR in the near future. It really all comes down to how much you travel and how much you'll be using that 50% point boost on the CSR compared to the 25% point boost on the CSP in my eyes. Nice video as always Mark!

@MarkReese Год назад

Indeed! I'm a CSP cardholder myself right now.

@RemGb10 Год назад

Mark, Nice detailed video. I got CSR in 2016 and cancelled in 2020 after fee increase. Accumulated UR points using Ink and other SUBs. Got CSP for SUB a few months back at 6/24 due to them being lenient. 2 days ago had to book international travel for $2.3k. To make most use of UR points I upgraded my CFU to CSR (proving you can have both CSP and CSR at same time but not SUBs for both) and instantly made the chase travel portal flight purchase using 1.5k ish points. CSR annual fees paid for itself. I have other travel redemptions too in coming months. If one has a lot of UR points to redeem for travel including from P2 makes sense to upgrade to CSR and redeem with 1.5x boost. Best option for family economy traveler like me.

@MarkReese Год назад

Well done! Yes, for economy travel, redeeming at 1.5¢ per point often brings solid value (without any hassle, too)! 💯

@aaront936 Год назад

Csr Priority pass restaurants have more than paid for not only the annual fee but also my wifes authorized user fee.

@MarkReese Год назад

Awesome! 🍽

@DannyAdair Год назад

As always, a great rundown. The CSR would be even more compelling if their non-portal travel earned a higher multiplier- as it stands now, their non-portal 3x is equivalent to the $150 Amex Green

@MarkReese Год назад

Agreed 👍

@tarrius1210 10 месяцев назад

Remember, your points get a 50% boost when redeeming travel within the UR portal. 3x is worth 4.5x on travel with the CSR.

@myria2834 Год назад

That $300 travel credit would be very useful for when I am forced to get a hotel due to mechanical issues. My employer repays hotel expenses when the truck has to remain in the shop overnight, if I cannot stay in the truck. That singular $300 statement credit would translate into upwards of $600 in value for me, paying for the card by itself. (And I have not had a single year where I haven't needed to get a hotel for at least a couple nights due to some mechanical issue.)

@MarkReese Год назад

Awesome that the value works out for you! 💯

@jollama Год назад

TLDR: get the CSP if you already have the AMEX Platinum. Get the CSR if you don’t plan to get the AMEX Platinum

@Alvin_1914 Год назад

Agreed!

@MarkReese Год назад

One way to do it!

@CesarJoel Год назад

Got the CSP, rarely see any use but like most is a must have to transfer points. Not a fan of the Sapphire cards, they need a refresh. Great information and video! ✌️

@MarkReese Год назад

CSP can be worthwhile for those transfer + 1.25¢ guarantee 💯

@yvjyang Год назад

I think the CSP is the better deal but I’m going to opt for the CSR because I want more premium travel benefits. The effective AF for me would be $250 vs the CSP’s $95 because I wouldn’t be using the $50 hotel credit just for the sake of using it (Airbnb enjoyer). So paying an extra $155 would warrant the additional benefits that the CSR brings.

@MarkReese Год назад

Sounds good! Yeah the hotel credit = useless if you don't stay at hotels 😄

@josemora6448 Год назад

My issue with the Reserve is for big purchases you would loose out on points say if you use the Freedom flex. Say I want to buy a $2000 dollars TV, I would love to use the Flex and get 3000 points, but if you use the Reserve to prioritize purchase protection then you would only get 2000 points, so you need to factor that on your purchase decisions.

@Mr.AlwaysonVacay Год назад

You can transfer points from the flex to the reserve thats why I have both cards.

@MarkReese Год назад

@@Mr.AlwaysonVacay - That doesn't solve for the issue of purchase protection being capped at $500 on the CFU vs. $10,000 on the CSR, though.

@MarkReese Год назад

Yep, worthwhile to choose the card w/ the benefit you care most about.

@charleswheat3251 Год назад

I have the preferred card and I have four authorized users. I would totally upgrade to the reserve if they allowed me to get authorize users at no cost even if they only let me keep them as preferred with no benefits, but I don’t think they do that.

@MarkReese Год назад

Interesting thought. I'd like to see a "CSP AU" option on a primary CSR account 👍

@charleswheat3251 Год назад

@@MarkReese hopefully that’s one of the changes they bring in the next following year or so to the CSR

@KingGreen78 Год назад

You should also do a pick one with the altitude reserve and the altitude connect. The connect seems better,but you're the expert

@MarkReese Год назад

@jameltanderson Год назад

I think the sapphire preferred need to raise the annual fee a little but add lounge access/ priority pass

@MarkReese Год назад

That'd be interesting to see!

@zsm5833 Год назад

i’d say it also depends on how much you spend in total and how long it lasts per travel. i recently took a cross country vacation and i spent nearly $8,000 and most of them were flights/amtrak, rental cars and hotels. if i travel again this year i might get the CSR straight but i’m still waiting for the elevated offer

@ctbt1832 8 месяцев назад

If you’re thinking about going from Sapphire preferred to sapphire reserve, and you still carry the minimum $5000 limit credit on the preferred you have to go through a credit check and inquiry to obtain the minimum $10,000 for the reserve credit card. If not, then you cannot product change. If you’re chase sapphire preferred have at least a $10,000 credit limit given to you. Then you can product change to the reserve without a credit check.

@MarkReese 8 месяцев назад

Hmm not sure about that. The Ritz-Carlton Credit Card has the same $10K requirement when upgrading from a lower-tier Marriott credit card. I was able to achieve that by transferring $5K from another Chase card. No credit check. No inquiry. That said, if you don't have $5K to transfer over, then you'll have to request a credit-limit increase. Historically, Chase has required a credit check / hard pull for those. However, more recently, that has changed. Source: www.doctorofcredit.com/chase-allowing-credit-limit-increases-via-app-without-hard-credit-pull/

@ctbt1832 8 месяцев назад

right before I made the comment as I was looking at your video, I called Chase and the representative inform me of it. He said it would be a credit check and everything that come with it to obtain the other amount to be equal to or over 10,000.

@woodzy883 Год назад

@jordan23ww I was 6/24 but I only had the Freedom flex. And it was during an elevated where approvals are somewhat more lax. If they do deny you, you can always call and transfer over some limit from other cards to get them to open.

CSP if I was to grab a Chase card, with my Amex Platinum I have travel covered fully the slight chance Amex isn't accepted the CSP Visa would come in handy. I may look into the CSP in early 2026 but for now I will enjoy the Amex Platinum and my other 49 cards hahahaha!

@MrTierhog774 11 месяцев назад

The portal is undeveloped for me to rationalize the CSR. No restaurants within 100 miles, Atlanta as a connection (favored over weather cancelling DFW/Denver) means Delta, and hit and miss Marriot opportunities keep me in the CSP realm. 3% CSP grocery solidifies the deal. CSR is simply to portal dependent and minimal lounge perks not worth the spend. Yes it has 1.5 but CSP is the better card.

@MarkReese 11 месяцев назад

👍👍

@nickc90210 10 месяцев назад

The concept of must using the Chase Portal automatically gives the Reserve card the last place as those points are valued at 1X to me since I’ll never use it. Plus the Amex Platinum is far more valuable. I’d go with the preferred.

@MarkReese 10 месяцев назад

@chikaadiele3155 Год назад

I was having such a hard time deciding and then I remembered that's what your channel is for haha. Definitely getting the Reserve, but have some questions. 1. Does the AU get all the same benefits of the card and can the same benefit be used by more than one user? For example, AU and I both want to use the lyft benefit, whereas AU will be the only one using Doordash and Instacart benefit. 2. Does that travel accident insurance replace regular travel insurance you would buy or should you still get it? 3. Does Chase have a list of items that would count for the travel credit outside of airfare? 4. What credit score would you recommend having to apply for the Reserve? My credit score is like 690 due to a high 0% interest balance with a high utilization, so I'm trying to see if I need to wait a couple months to pay that off before applying (although ideally I'd like to apply within the next couple of weeks since I have some big item spend to make soon). Thanks again!

@MarkReese Год назад

1. Here's a link to the CSR's authorized user benefits: upgradedpoints.com/credit-cards/reviews/chase-sapphire-reserve/adding-authorized-users/ 2. I'm not sure. I'd look into the terms at this link: www.chasebenefits.com/sapphirereserve2 3. Here's a link to how Chase categorizes rewards categories, including travel: www.chase.com/personal/credit-cards/rewards-category-faq 4. Required / recommended credit scores aren't published. I'd personally want to have a 720+ and no high utilization, but that's just me.

@josemora6448 Год назад

Yes I know, but my point is which one would you use for the purchase? I understand purchase protection on the Reserve is better than the rest.

@MarkReese Год назад

Depends on what you value / care about. If I were to say "use the CSR for an expensive tech purchase," but someone didn't care about insurance protections & the claim filing process, then that suggestion wouldn't be valid for that person. Fortunately, there's not much of a difference between 1X vs. 1.5X.

For me, my choice was and still is the CSP because I’m not traveling enough to desire lounge access and the better travel insurances. The $95/yr is perfect at my level.

@DT-we2ye Год назад

Awesome update! I was looking for a detailed updated 2023 comparison on these two cards. I have CSP but have always wondered about getting to CSR. I still can't justify that annual fee on the CSR. Its alot of work to make sure you get the maximum values that make the CSR worth it. In terms of the non-travel uses of the cards, I think the CSP is a better, more versatile card. I don't have the bandwidth for a card like CSR in terms of maximinze benefits. Can you maybe do an updated video on your best cards for dining? What is your opinion as to the reasonable expectation on dining rewards, especially outside the Amex ecosystem? With my CC set up, I have tons of 3% back on dining, but I can't find 4% or 5% card for dining for the life of me. Thanks again so much for your amazing videos.

Chase is pretty liberal on the spend requirements for bonuses. Almost anything counts except cash advances or peer to peer payments

Thanks! I don't plan to include valid purchases vs. invalid purchases. That's because nearly all "regular purchases" are valid. Home repairs, medical bills, auto repairs, etc. are all fine. You can view all the exclusions in the offer terms, and they're nearly always the same for all cards. In the case for the CSP, "purchases" do not include: balance transfers, cash advances, travelers checks, foreign currency, money orders, wire transfers or similar cash-like transactions, lottery tickets, casino gaming chips, race track wagers or similar betting transactions, any checks that access your account, interest, unauthorized or fraudulent charges, and fees of any kind, including an annual fee, if applicable

Perhaps in part because the standard Venture card has been around for a lot longer. Already did that comparison video, here's the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZF37kE21tJ4.html

@@MarkReese Wow thank you. I work retail and that's what I see the most. Just never understood why not upgrade to the X when it's practically the same annual fee when the $300 is returned. That's how I saw the CSR before they bumped up the annual fee +$100

@Gurwinderparmar Год назад

I will keep oldest account open and need your suggestion or your thoughts on, whether if I can close my last year credit card because I’m not getting benefit out of it. Please help. I will close my last year account. Closing newest account and leave it open the oldest one will that still effect my credit

@@Gurwinderparmar - The decision is up to you. If I wanted to close the card, I would close it. Here's a link to another video you may find helpful: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UcWqixdQk30.html

I would like to close it because it’s annual fee card and I’m not getting good value out of it. I will keep my oldest account which is five years ago. I will keep that card and close this annual fee card which I opened last year since I’m not getting good value out of it, does it sound good?

@@Gurwinderparmar - Sounds good to me.
