Chase Sapphire Preferred Matching Offers

One of the hottest questions right now is whether or not Chase Sapphire Preferred matching offers are happening after the recent offer increase. If you signed up for the Sapphire Preferred when it was at the lower 60,000 point level you are probably filled with self loathing and regret that you missed out on the higher 100,000 point offer. The thought was that there would be a good chance of Chase matching recent applicants to the higher offer, as they have in the past (outside of those United cards at least). A while ago they were super generous matching to the all time high Ink card offers after all. They went back as far as 9 months in some cases then, but that isn't the case now.

Does Chase Match Welcome Offers?

Outside of peak covid Chase has always been really good about matching higher welcome offers for recent card applicants. Even late last year / early this year we saw them go back more than 3 months for some people and match offers. They are being more calculated this time around.

Applicants That Were Approved For A CSP Match

It appears that the Chase Sapphire preferred matching offers are all dependent on the application date once again this time around. According to multiple Chase call center reps, and lots of data points, there is a firm cut off of March 13th for increased offer matches. If you applied before then you are unfortunately left out in the cold. I would have liked to see a bit more timeframe for them to match the increased Sapphire Preferred offer, but something is better than nothing.

How To Request A Chase Sapphire Preferred Offer Match

There are a couple of different ways to ask for a Chase Sapphire Preferred offer match. I wouldn't waste my time if you applied prior to March 13th. If you had applied after then, and only had the 60K offer upon approval, then you 100% should give it a try.

The best (or at least easiest) way to ask for an offer match is to send Chase a secure message from your Chase account. You can just log into your account and go to the messages section. Once there, select your Sapphire Preferred card number and send them a message. A couple of sentences about how you saw there is a new 100K offer and that you would like to be matched to that offer, since you just signed up, should be enough. They will usually respond within a day or two. Hopefully you are approved for the higher welcome bonus without issue.

If you prefer a more direct approach, then you can call the number on the back of your Sapphire Preferred card. Once you get the rep you can give the same spiel as above, about wanting to be matched to the higher offer. Either way should get you the same result if your application date qualifies.

Chase Sapphire Preferred Matching Offers – ToP Thoughts

Hopefully this answers the questions about Chase Sapphire Preferred matching offers to the new 100,000 point offer. Chase seems to have a recency bias this time around, approving everything from March 13th on. Outside of that your chances drop down to pretty much zero percent. It would have been nice if they had gone back a few more weeks, but at least we have something to work with.

You should be able to pull off the Chase Sapphire Preferred offer match with very little effort. Let us know if you are successful or not over in the ToP Facebook Group.
