Chase used to match credit card bonuses if you had applied within 90 days of the higher bonus, that policy changed sometime in 2020. Now they generally only match Chase branded cards and not cobranded cards like United or Marriott. The match dates also seem arbitrary. Chase has just increased the sign up bonus on the Chase Sapphire Reserve card to 150,000 points.
When asking to match customer service representatives are stating you need to have applied by 4/20 to be eligible for a match to the higher bonus. These reps aren’t always reliable, but all data points seem to back up this date:
Doesn’t seem to matter if you ask for the match via secured message or phone. I think it’s a shame that Chase has moved to this new system. It was nice knowing you could apply for a bonus and be eligible for a higher bonus if it increased within a reasonable timeframe. Chase has also changed the rules regarding eligibility on this card.
