Sapphire Reserve celebrates decade with 5.5M point sweepstakes and expanded DoorDash credit
The Chase Sapphire Reserve is marking its 10th anniversary by offering cardholders a chance to win 5.5 million Ultimate Rewards points, along with limited-time travel credits. Starting Oct. 1, the card's monthly DoorDash credit will rise from $5 to $15, applicable to all DoorDash orders, including restaurants. This increase complements existing DoorDash benefits, bringing potential monthly value up to $35 for eligible members.
The anniversary promotion combines a single grand prize with broader benefit enhancements. The 5.5 million point giveaway represents a substantial potential value, though only one cardholder will receive it. More immediately, the DoorDash credit increase from $5 to $15 monthly adds roughly $120 in annual value for members who regularly use the service.
Five limited-time travel offers require activation and specific spending thresholds, ranging from $200 on JSX flights to $1,500 on Wander rentals. Credits range from $125 to $350, with deadlines spanning October through December. These offers target premium travel categories including hotels, private aviation, and vacation rentals.
The enhanced DoorDash credit and anniversary travel offers could influence how premium credit card holders choose between competing cards. Consumers may weigh the increased monthly value against annual fees when deciding whether to retain or acquire the Sapphire Reserve. The promotion could also encourage more spending at partner brands during the offer window, potentially benefiting those businesses. However, the single grand prize means most cardholders will see only modest, incremental value from the anniversary celebration.
