So really it's 2.14 points per dollar on dining, flights, hotels, and car rentals as there's also the 7% point dividend on all points earned.

Plus no Forex...pretty sweet card.
when do you receive bonus, end of year?

The bonus comes at the end of the calendar year, or anniversary year?

Anywhere to find info if you have the sapphire, checking and freedom card that you get 10 points?

It's not a published benefit, but it definitely applies to anyone with a chase checking account and a freedom card.
The sapphire card isn't required, but that allows you to transfer points into miles.

So any charge on my sapphire card would result in 10 points if I got all 3? (Checking, Freedom, Sapphire) Do they credit it automatically?

If you got all 3, wouldn't it be better than any airline or hotel CC? With the Sapphire you can transfer to any airline or hotel program and each dollar would be 10 points?

No, the charge has to be on the freedom card.

Huh?
If you have Freedom+checking you get 10 points per transaction made on the freedom card.  That's on top of 1 point per dollar, or 5 points per dollar in rotating categories.

You can then transfer those earned points to Sapphire Preferred from where you can transfer out to CO or Hyatt, etc.

Just to report...

Sent an SM asking for the 100K bonus, especially since it was my first card (honest first application!). Got a reply asking for an invitation code, name and zip. Boohoo :( Guess I'll just celebrate with 50K :)

FYI,

The double points on dining benefit also applies to the regular Sapphire Card (and not just the Preferred card).  This is good for those that downgraded to avoid the annual fee.

I heard about a targeted offer going around for a Sapphire NON-Preferred offering 50k after spending $750 in 3 months.  No annual fee of course.  Anyone heard of this, or any comments?
If you don't care why would you comment?

Even if it were true, after how Chase reacted to the targeted preferred offer, I'd be hesitant to sign up for the non-preferred in the mere hopes of getting it matched. Chase ain't Amex.

I think the 100k Sapphire Preferred match is deader than a 5 day old skunk on the road.

I just received confirmation that i will receive the additional 50k for a total of 100k.

Please clarify whether (i) you just now requested a match for the first time, or (ii) you previously requested a match when everyone else was getting matched (about a month ago) and are just now confirming that you're getting what they previously promised you.

I think it was after the fact, looks like he wrote in to the office of the president and it actually worked.

Grats sir!
