Chase Freedom and Sapphire Reserve Referral Bonus Offers have Concluded

The referral page for Chase Sapphire Reserve “has concluded” according to the dedicated referral page. The Chase Freedom card gets the same message as well.

Chase offers a nice bonus for referring a friend to many of their cards, all of which are still available with the exception of the Sapphire Reserve.

Regarding referral links which have already been generated: when I tried clicking on various referral links, some of them work while most of them give a pop up with a message indicating the offer is “no longer available” and redirects to the current offer. Oddly, the URL of the “redirect” remains the same. I’d guess there’s some other issue going on there, and that existing referrals will work fine (probably even the ones giving the redirect).

Chase declined to comment on whether the bonus will be reinstated. Most likely just a refresh and will come back at some point.

I was contemplating whether or not I should downgrade my CSR; I did downgrade, and this referral shutdown simply reinforces my choice.

BTW, I’m active on r/churning, and never got any referrals for the CSR, although my CSP has been used quite a few times, both were posted for the exact same timeframes.

They both take me to an app page, unlike when the CSP went down and you got an error when you tried to apply.

It’s catch 22 isn’t it? I like being on the “inside” on referring yourself to a card, adding nickname AU’s, etc but then find it amusing when the churning community gets upset that the banks have finally had enough. I mean the refer a friend was to try to drum up business not to refer yourself/wife to the same card that you have no intention of keeping past year 1.

CSP went away for couple days and came back with a refreshed link.

Looks like CSR & Freedom are gone this time — they’re probably just refreshing the links (my existing links for both cards work fine)

i think there was a reason why CSP went down for a couple of days… one of my other group members found that the referral CSP term doesnt have the AU bonus anymore.
