Because it's Metal.

That's why the 2 people I know have this card. Lol

I wonder how often they feel the thrill!  Only when they use it or do they take it out at home and lovingly gaze upon its beauty?

 

I guess if it often enough, $95 a year is WAY cheaper than many ways of getting pleasure....

It is a great card for me. The bonus was nice but it will be my travel card for the foreseeable future.

The big value proposition for CSP isn't using them at 1.25 cents per point on the Chase Travel portal.   It's actually transferring them to partner hotels and airlines and using them in their loyalty programs.  Depending on the redemption, it's possible to get much more than 1c per point.    Often people quote around 2 cents per UR, but in some cases 3 or 4+

 

Then transferring from Freedom helps, but as Freedom is capped, it's not all that significant a source


Can anyone give some examples of UR gets 3 or 4 per point? The best way I know now is transfer to Southwest. Repaid Rewards worth about 1.7-1.8c per point.

+1

 

Basically the same on this end. Not only that but the CSP is already cost me the Freedom Card that i reallocated over to the CSP instead of taking an INQ hit for an unknown CLI.

 

Now with the 5/24 diddle dattle rule and being an only Chase Card, it's still worth holding onto for me.
