Our Verdict
The official launch bonus on this card is 100,000 points after $5,000 in spend, without the $95 annual fee being waived. To compare this offer is basically $295 + two free nights up to 35,000 points each vs that offer of 100,000 points, plus this offer has the lower spend requirement. The other offer gives you more flexibility as it’s points rather than two free nights, but if you’re going to spend your free night certificates on a category five property then I’d say this deal is a lot better than the other deal. As always if you have questions about Chase cards I’d recommend reading this.
