Breaking: Record $1,250 Offer on Top Card

Application link

The Chase Sapphire Preferred (CSP) Visa card has a new record-high 100,000 points welcome offer / sign-up bonus (SUB). (All three of us here at Team Green-Ball have one.) You can only have one CSP at a time and can't get the bonus if you've gotten a SUB on a CSP in the past 48 months. More information from our friends at Travel Freely below.

Even if you don't want to figure out how to transfer points to partners like Hyatt or Air France, you can use those 100,000 points to book $1,250 in flights, hotels, or car rentals through Chase's Travel Portal. We have used Chase points to book stays at great non-chain hotels this way.  

Note: If your credit is frozen (e.g., Experian), schedule a thaw before applying. (More on applying below.)
