UPDATE 8/15 3:10pm ET: Application link is currently broken. Those who used the original link are reporting being told that there was no signup bonus attached. I’d recommend waiting for an official signup page from Chase. -Greg
News has broken out on Reddit that there is now a live application link for the Chase Sapphire Reserve card. As a reminder, this new premium card from Chase has the following features:
- $450 annual fee
- $300 annual travel credit
- Lounge access
- $100 global entry fee credit
- 3X dining and travel
It is also supposed to come with a 100,000 point sign-up bonus, however the link doesn’t mention the bonus. Normally with Chase apps the bonus is mentioned on the landing page and unfortunately there is no link to that. In other words, as far as we know all versions of the app should come with the bonus, but there is no confirmation (or guarantee) that you will get it.
Update: Here is a link to the landing page for the offer. The landing page is no longer working.
Additionally, many Reddit users have reported being approved even if they have more than 5 new accounts in the past 24 months. I highly suggest reading the data points on Reddit to find out the latest. Some users are reporting that CSRs are saying this app doesn’t have the bonus. You can also find the link on Reddit as well.

Has Anyone received their metal card yet? Having received the plastic one first? Priority Pass Card?
Thanks.
I just got Chase reserve, if I downgrade my Preferred to a second freedom or any other card, will I able to upgrade back to preferred if I choose not to keep Reserve in the long term?
Thanks
Yes. Or, you can downgrade the Reserve to the Preferred.
I’ve opened 4 new cards in the past two years. A recent authorized user makes it five. Will this hurt my chances of getting approved fro the Chase Reserve given the 5/24? If I were to close the authorized user account, would that help?
Yes, if the AU account shows up on your credit report it may hurt your chances of getting approved. Closing the account won’t help unless you also request to have it removed from your credit reports
Are chase points safe if you transfer them to another chase rewards card before cancelling? If I were to get the Reserve and cancel after a year of spend, would the points earned be safe if I combined them to my freedom or preferred account before cancelling?
Yes, once points are moved to another account, it is safe to cancel
Could you purchase an $300 airline gift card to generate the $300 annual travel credit? If I get in September, could I get the gift card then and again in January for $600 travel credit?
As long as it codes as travel you should get the credit. I suspect buying a gift card directly from the airline would work, but it all depends on how they code the purchase.
How could you find out how it would be coded?
I have a question. I had the regular Chase Sapphire Preferred card, which I cancelled some time back. It is less than 24 months since I got the bonus. Will I get the bonus for this card if it gets approved?
Yes. They are different products.
If it’s without 5/24 then I know of four people getting this card in my family, if 5/24, then only one person! I am hoping for 4!
Is it possible that Chase plans to roll out the CSR initially without the 5/24 rule? Seems like a good way boost numbers for product launch.
Sure, it’s possible
Is there an actual link rather than just links to Reddit? Also, why does the creditcardsccwip.f9dev.com link all require a username and password? Is there a way to create one?
Much thanks.
It seems to have been a dev site rather than production. It is no longer available without a password.
Thanks! Once again one step behind the crowd.
Is there an easy way for me to tell my current standing with regards to 5/24?
As others have stated, the link now appears to be dead. I’m sure that those who got approved will get the bonus one way or another (you may have to contact Chase after the card is officially released to ask for a match).
One thing to note is that the original application link (without landing page) posted to Reddit is the same application linked to from the landing page. I compared the URLs and they were exactly the same.
Applied and instant approved ($10K CL). The page showed 10K sign-up bonus points and stated worth $1500. However, the link is unavailable right after my approval. Hopefully, Chase will honor it. I was way over 5/24 rule.
where did you get the link?
Man, people must be desperate for this thing if they’re handing over all their personal information on creditcardsccwip.f9dev.com. Maybe it’s legitimate, but wow.
They do the dev for Chase’s credit card sites. Once you clicked the link to apply, the application page was on the usual Chase domain. None of the PII was submitted to f9, it was submitted to Chase. Double checked the SSL certificate as well, it checked out.
Link has already died. R.I.P. 12:00 PM PST.
No mention in the benefits of rental car insurance or the Visa Inspire program.
