CSP Targeted Offer

[queen_britt2003]

Hi All,

I would like to apply for the CSP card.  The sign-up bonus is enticing and I think it would be a great way to travel on a budget for my son & I.  Any tips on getting a targeted offer?  About 3 months ago, I had to place a fraud alert on my reports with the bureaus.  I would get Chase offers from time to time before that but haven't gotten anything since.  What's the easiest way to get these going again?  I want to make sure I maximize the sign-up bonus.

Thanks for your help!

I am not aware of anything better than the publicly available 50,000 UR points for $4k spend in 3 months.

I agree with the above post.  I have not heard of a targeted offer or any offer for that matter in excess of the 50k/$4k standard sign on bonus for the CSP.

The only offer better is if you have a spouse/relative with the CSP currently who refers you.

Then you'd get the 50,000 UR ($500 cash/$625 Travel) Plus whoever refers you gets 10,000 UR points ($100 cash/$125 Travel).

That's the best you'll get ever its very generous considering they waive the first year's Annual Fee. There are no "Targeted Offers" for this card.

Good point, Matt. Then you can in turn make that person an AU on yours and get another 5,000 UR points when they make their first purchase in 90 days. And Chase let's CSP members move UR points within a household.

So if no existing CSP, OP could apply, add son as AU, refer son, son could apply, add OP as an AU and grand total of at least 128,000 UR points with the spend!

Really?  I have not heard of that.  Do you just go in branch and ask them to check for you and they'll say whether it's the standard 50k or 70k based on what they see?

The AU doesn't have to make the purchase. When the second card is sent, the information is identical to the owners, even the security code on the back. All you have to do to get the AU bonus is request a card for someone and then use your own card. It's dumb not to do it.
