At the start of 2020, Chase Sapphire Reserve and Preferred cardholders received a decent new benefit which was two free years of DoorDash’s DashPass feature.
DashPass offers free delivery and reduced service fees on all your $12+ DoorDash orders, so if you were a frequent user over the last couple of years those savings would’ve added up quite nicely.
Now that it’s been two years though, your free DashPass is coming to an end, so remember to cancel your subscription if you don’t want to pay for it in the future.
When this benefit was first launched, you were supposed to get two years free. When registering my wife’s Chase Sapphire Reserve card it said we had DashPass through February 6, 2022, but in the app itself the expiry date was listed as December 31, 2021. It’s therefore worth checking your DashPass expiry date in the DoorDash app by tapping on ‘Manage DashPass’.
If you get a lot of value from the benefit then by all means continue to pay for it. However, if DashPass has been in the category of nice-to-have-but-I-can-live-without-it, you’ll need to cancel it soon if you don’t want to be charged for its renewal.
Something worth noting is that earlier this year Chase added a free one year DashPass subscription as a benefit on many of their cobranded cards. Doctor of Credit shared recently that if you have an expiring free DashPass subscription, you can cancel that, remove all Chase cards from your payment methods and add an eligible Chase card back to your account to get another year’s worth of DashPass membership for free. You have to be enrolled in that free year of DashPass by December 31, 2021, so you’ll need to get that sorted out in the next couple of days if you’re interested in taking advantage of that opportunity.

Thank you guys. I can confirm this is still working in January 2022. I just did it. In my case my free DashPass with Chase Reserve was expiring at the end of January. I deleted all Chase cards from my profile and cancelled DashPass membership. Waited a couple of minutes and added a different Chase card (Marriott this time) and I got offered another year of free DashPass. Voilà!!! Free DashPass til Jan 2023. Yayyyyy!!
I don’t order enough to justify paying for it, but the fact that I have it, makes me order more than I would otherwise if I didn’t. So take advantage of it if you can.
Agree with the others. Cancelled DashPass yesterday through the app (set to expire on 1/31/22). The problem for me was figuring out how to delete my CSR. When I added a Hyatt card, the activation page for DashPass kept defaulting to CSR even though Hyatt was set as my default payment card. Never figured out how to delete my CSR on the app, but I was able to delete it on the web site. Then, signed up for 12 months of free DashPass again through the web site, which showed the link to my Hyatt card (which was then the only card on DoorDash). Hope this helps anyone else trying to do this.
If you have a CSR or CSP, you actually have until 3.31.22 to activate the subscription. But if you activate by tomorrow, you will also get 1/2 off your first order, max of $15.
If you have one of the other eligible Chase cards then the rules are similar to the above (for CSP & CSR), but the first order promo is only good for a flat $10 off and activation must happen by tomorrow, regardless.
In all cases, once a Dash Pass suscription is enabled, it’s also usable on the Caviar app.
I have the 1-year free offer on my Southwest Priority Card but it says I have until 3/31/22 to use it.
Thanks! Deleted my account.
I can confirm your method for getting another year with a different Chase card works. My subscription from my CSR was expiring 1/31/22, so I just now cancelled DashPass, removed the Chase cards from my profile, and 5 minutes later added my Hyatt card. It gave me another year and now shows my expiration as 12/29/22.
Thanks for the reminder!
You can also get $10 off your next order.
Thanks for the reminder. I used it twice to burn my Sapphire Reserve credits. I prefer to get out of the house these days. My wife and I both like to cook, so if we’re eating at home, we’re making something better than what can be delivered.
I readded DashPass to see what the expiratory period would be and mine says 07/1/2022 since it was activated on 07/01/2021. I removed it about 2 2months ago because in the 3 months I had it and chose it over Seamless, 4 of my 5 orders were cancelled last minute causing me to then scramble to get breakfast or dinner prepared for my kids. I requested some type of compensation after the 3rd and 4th time and was told to kick rocks basically for I removed them and do not plan on using again but was curious to see if the Pass benefit was extended into 2022. I hope everyone else has better luck with DashPass.
Thanks. Cancelled it. Don’t use it much anyways (with my CSR)
Thanks! I was able to cancel it and ad my wife’s sapphire preferred card for another year of dashpass.
Thanks for the reminder Stephen! Hat tip to DOC for extending another year using another Chase card.
Ah, that must’ve been it – thanks! I’ve added a link to that.
