We’ve seen a number of reports over the past few days about an 85K offer for the Chase Sapphire Preferred (CSP) card that will soon be available in-branch. Doctor of Credit has now received an internal Chase memo which indicates that, starting 4/28, there will be an in-branch welcome offer for CSP that gives 75,000 Ultimate Rewards points after $4,000 in spend within the first 3 months, plus an additional 10,000 points after spending $6,000 total within the first 6 months.
There will also be an increased, in-branch offer available on the Chase Sapphire Reserve for 75,000 points after $4,000 spend, but without the additional 10K kicker.
Our assumption is that these will both be available at all Chase locations. However, as always with these in-branch offers, it can pay to call and confirm before going down.
The Offer and Key Card Details
- Starting on Sunday, 4/28, there will be an in-branch offer for the Chase Sapphire Preferred that’s good for 85K points after $6K in total purchases within the first 6 months.

Quick Thoughts
We see better in-branch offers for the Sapphire Preferred and Sapphire Reserve now and then — sometimes the online offer also increases, but not always. While 85K points isn’t the best offer that we’ve ever seen on the Sapphire Preferred (it’s been as high as 100K), it’s still an excellent offer that could be well worth the trip to a Chase branch.
Currently, referral links go to the 60K public offer. However, if that increases, a household referral would add another 10,000 points to the total haul, so if you’re in a 2-player household and already have one Sapphire Preferred, it may be worth holding off for a bit to see whether or not this 85K offer eventually goes online.

Any idea how long the in-branch offers usually run? I would like my P2 to get in on this offer but will wait to see if they include an on-line offer soon? Just not sure how low to wait. New to the pts/miles hobby. Thanks for the help!
It all sounds good. What do I need to do???
Visit a Chase branch and ask a personal banker for an application.
