Referrals Now Live
Previously, the system wasn’t giving these offers via the Chase refer-a-friend system, but they now are showing it and you can get the same bonus for signing up on the card while helping your friend earn 5,000 points or $50 as well.
- Receive 5,000 Ultimate Rewards points for each referral on the Sapphire Preferred card. Max of 10 referrals, or 50,000 points.
- Receive $50 for each referral on the Freedom card. Max 10 referrals, or $500.
- You can also refer-a-friend to the INK Plus card and receive a higher referral bonus of 10,000 points. We wrote about that previously.
The Chase Refer-a-Friend program can be accessed at https://www.chasereferafriend.com/.
There are 3 options for referring: via email, Twitter, or Facebook. The easiest way to refer is to get a link via Twitter or Facebook since you’ll get the link instantly; if you choose the email route, it takes a few days (“Your friends will receive an email within the next 7 days”). You don’t have to actually tweet out anything, just choose the option and it will show you your link. You can then instantly email your link to a friend or post it on your website, etc.
For some reason, the Freedom card is not showing the Twitter or Facebook option which means that you can’t generate an instant link. Just send an email to yourself and when you get the email a few days later it should have a link which you can then post on Twitter or wherever.

End Date
We also learned from this referral program that the Sapphire offer will be around (at least via referrals) until 3/5/16.
The referral site shows an end-date of 2/5/16.
But if you generate a tweet, it shows the date of 3/5/16. This apparently means that the chasereferafriend.com site will offer the option of referring until 2/5/16, but the referral links will be valid to use until 3/5/16, After 2/5/16, you will no longer be able to access your link, so be sure to mark it down before then.
We still don’t know what the end-date for the Freedom offer will be and we’ll find out when the referral emails start coming through in a few days or if they add the Twitter option for referring. We’ll add it here when we find out.
Leave Referrals in the Comments
As we’ve done in the past, we’ll allow readers to leave referrals in the comments for the Sapphire Preferred and Freedom cards. You can post your link or your email address. You may want to create a separate email address for this purpose.
Rules
- Do not make any monetary arrangements in the comments.
- Post each referral only once.
- Do not leave any INK referrals, you can do that here.
- Do not leave any excessively long comments; adding a few lines is fine.
