It's 100k bonus points, which is 1000 dollars, or $1500 if you redeem on our travel rewards site. Yes you still can receive the offer if you apply for the reserve card. You can transfer the avail credit from your saphire to the reserve, but doing that will not net you the bonus.

100,000 points is worth even so much more than $1500. 100,000 points transferred to Singapore Air miles can get you a first class suite on the A380 for 75,000 miles to Tokyo. That ticket can be $18,000. |

Correct, this is the Reserve card and it just came out today. I would advise applying ASAP as I am not sure how long 100,000 bonus lasts and that alone is worth it. I only got a $35k limit on the instant approval, but they said I can move around some credit from your other Chase cards, so you do have that option if you want a higher limit.
Some people are reporting getting declined, so I'd recommend paying off all balances (even current 30 day cycle balances) first and waiting a couple weeks for the bureau to see you are $0 credit balance. |

I'm not a credit card guru, so 'splain some stuff to me.
100,000 bonus points (Spend $4,000 in first 3 months) - We put $4k/mo on ours, so no problem here. 3X points on Dining - We eat out 4-5 nights a week. 3X points on travel - We travel 3-4 times a year, but what qualifies as travel? $300 Travel credit (yearly) - How does this work? TSA Pre/Global Entry credit (Every 4 years) - I think these are good for 5 years. - Is this like a refund after you get TSA PRE/GE? No Foreign Transaction Fees - This would come in handy for our trip to the UK next week. Access 900+ VIP airport lounges worldwide with Priority PassT - What is Priority PassT?

I'm considering it....but what to do with the sapphire preferred? Also, just curious, will this card be made of metal as well? Small thing, but would be cool
