Chase recently introduced new perks for its premium Sapphire Reserve credit card, including complimentary subscriptions to Apple services. Specifically, cardholders can now enjoy annual subscriptions to both Apple TV+ and Apple Music, offering a value of up to $250 per year.
For those already subscribing to Apple TV+ or Apple Music directly through Apple, these subscriptions will be automatically suspended and replaced by Chase’s complimentary offerings as long as the promotion is active. The complimentary subscriptions will last until June 22, 2027.
However, this perk does not cover Apple One subscription bundles. If you are currently enrolled in an Apple One bundle, you will still incur monthly charges while enjoying the Chase perks, so it’s advisable to cancel the Apple One subscription if you wish to take full advantage of the credit card’s benefits.
In conjunction with these new perks, Chase has increased the annual fee for the Sapphire Reserve from $550 to $795. This adjustment effectively offsets the $250 value of the Apple subscriptions.
Despite the fee increase, Chase asserts that the card now provides more than $2,700 in annual value due to a wide array of additional benefits. Additionally, new Sapphire Reserve cardholders can take advantage of a welcome bonus of 100,000 points, which can be worth over $1,000, along with a $500 travel credit after meeting a minimum spending requirement of $5,000 within the first three months.
