Our Verdict
Sorry about the title, it’s a bit of a mouthful. Chase only yesterday pulled the authorized user bonus on the public version of this bonus, that bonus is also only 50,000 points. That being said we did see a bonus of up to 80,000 points earlier in the year. That being said these selected for you offers do by pass 5/24. My general rule is that if you see one of these, or an in branch pre-approval that you should just apply for it if you’re eligible and have given up staying under 5/24 as it’s unlikely you’ll get a better offer anytime soon and it can always be removed from you. As always if you have any questions about Chase cards, please read this post first.
