Chase Sapphire Reserve and Chase Sapphire Preferred cardmembers now have the option of donating to select charity organizations using the Pay Yourself Back feature at 1.5 and 1.25 cents per point respectively.
“Now more than ever we know our cardmembers want options to get the most value from their rewards,” said Matt Massaua, Head of Ultimate Rewards and Loyalty Solutions. “We’re continuing to give our customers choices so they have the flexibility to use their points in the most meaningful ways for them.”
The new Pay Yourself Back feature within Ultimate Rewards will provide Sapphire Preferred and Sapphire Reserve cardholders to get full value from their points by applying points to pay for all or a portion of their existing purchases in select categories, and get paid back with a statement credit.
