Complete Guide Chase Refer a Friend Guide –

Chase has an extremely attractive program for referrals aptly named Chase Refer a Friend. Since we’re all friends here, I thought I’d lay down some buddy talk and explain how the program works. The Chase Refer a Friend program is incredibly lucrative, offering the potential to earn up to 100k bonus points per card, per year just for referring others to the card you keep. It’s a program I do my best to max out every single year, so I can keep flying in great cabins and staying a wonderful hotels. In fact, it’s a huge incentive to keep cards long term, and how I earn upwards of 500k points a year.

Chase has some of the most valuable points in the credit card world – go here to see our best uses

The Various Methods of populating referrals

In total, there are 3 ways to generate links from a catch all to individual card microsites we go through them in detail below. We walk through referrals in the video below and explain how you can use my site, and others, to help generate bonus points for your travel pursuits.

1) The Chase Refer a Friend ( Catch All )

This is a great function that Chase has put it place, and it works for most cards. However, it doesn’t work for all cards. Go here first, and if for some reason your card isn’t populating a link…try the next function.

The easiest way to refer: shoot your friend a link, or post it online

Once you enter in the Information it will populate a referral link…like this one for my Chase Sapphire Preferred – it would earn me 15k bonus points and populate a referral offer of 80k after hitting $4k min spend in 3 months + $50 grocery credit. You can leave this link in the comments section here, or shoot it to your friend, post it on twitter, facebook, etc. Even throw it in you instagram profile link.

The longer way is to send someone an email.

This used to be the only way links would work, and takes a while for your friend to receive it.

2) Another source of Chase Refer A Friend links: Go here

Chase has another site that you can create referrals from and it lists “most” cards that are eligible. Notice that 9 cards are listed; however, many cards still have referrals available, but they’re only populating through the cards microsite. This is great if, for some reason, your card doesn’t populate a referral on the catch all up above, you can go here and locate your card. It’s also a good source to see if new cards are populating referrals.

However…it doesn’t actually list all of the cards with referral offers.

3) Individual Chase refer a friend microsites: The Best Way

If you have one of these cards, you can utilize the Chase microsite to populate a referral. There are a couple of ways to do this:

www.chase.com/referafriend/( card name )
www.chase.com/referabusiness/(card name )

You may need to play around with the card names to get them to work…some include Chase, some do not.

Things to keep in mind

Chase has started to send out 1099s for referral points. This means that if you are sent a 1099 you should contact a tax professional because you may be responsible for paying taxes on the points you received because of a referral. Last time I checked Chase was putting a 1 cent
