The Chase Sapphire Preferred card used to be offer 5,000 Ultimate Rewards points after you added an authorized user and made your first purchase. The card is no longer advertising this as a benefit/offer. The strange thing about Chase and authorized user offers is that often they don’t advertise a card has an authorized user bonus, but if it ever does then it always does (e.g sometimes it’s just not advertised and doesn’t even show in the terms, but you still get the bonus if that card ever offers an authorized bonus). Unfortunately TPG has confirmed with Chase that they have actually pulled the 5,000 bonus on the Sapphire Preferred card and it’s no longer being offered.
Looks like Chase is still desperately cutting costs wherever possible. We recently had them tighten the eligibility rules on this card and then remove price protection benefits as well.
