Chase Sapphire Preferred is my FAVORITE Travel card — and right now, it’s offering a limited-time 100,000-point bonus (worth at least $1,250 in free travel) that ends May 15 at 9am ET. Thanks for using my personal affiliate link to support the podcast if you decide to apply for the card:

But beyond the big bonus, this card quietly packs in some powerful perks that most people overlook.
In this episode, I’ll break down the lesser-known features that make this my #1 recommended travel card — including a $50 hotel credit, hidden travel protections, a way to “erase” any purchase with your points and more. Whether you already have the card or are thinking of applying before the offer ends Thursday at 9am ET, you’ll learn how to get the most value from every benefit it offers.
🎧 Tune in to find out:
- How to use the $50 hotel credit (most people forget this!)
- What Chase Pay Yourself Back REALLY is — and why it’s a game-changer
- Travel insurance protections that could save you thousands
- The overlooked bonuses you earn just for keeping the card
