Keep one of those for 1 or 2 years and credit card offers will rain all over you if you always pay in time

Hahahahahahaha no.
I get $500 in straight cash value from my plat card every year, and the lounges Chase Reserve gets you into are shit. Plat gets you into the delta lounges which are far better.

Seriously though, Chase Reserve is the card for posers. It is trashy IMO.

heres the thing. i had 4 of the ultimate rewards cards. the chase freedom, the chase sapphire reserve, the chase freedom unlimited, and the Chase Ink Preferred (a business credit card).

the CIP offers 3x on travel, and the ability to transfer my chase points out to airline/hotel partners, and i get a 1.25x redemption. sure the reserve gets 1.5x but i barely used it and its like a 50 dollar difference on most of the flights i used it for. whatever.

so it was redundant to have both. i got the Plat cuz i would get a of the features that the CSR had that the CIP didn't have, like lounge access, but it also gave me MORE.

CENTURION LOUNGE!!!!
AIRSPACE LOUNGE (i mean theres only 2, but they're there!)
MARRIOTT/SPG GOLD ELITE STATUS (free room upgrades!!!)
HILTON GOLD (free breakfast and room upgrades!)

so i just swapped out the CSR for the Plat and got more value OVERALL across all my cards

plus, rumors are that the Premium Rewards Gold card (of which i have 2) is gonna have a points overhaul and have fucking 4 POINTS PER DOLLAR ON RESTAURANTS AND G R O C E R Y S T O R E S

i was at my local safeway looking at all the gift cards they sell and i got excited! 4 points per dollar!!!

and and AND, since i got the Charles Schwab version, i can redeem 1.25 cents per point redemption!!! THAT MAKES THE 4 POINTS PER DOLLAR WORTH 5% IN CASH BACK OOOOOH MAMA

The Gold Cards you can get as authorized users when you have a Platinum have the points of the Platinum version.

So if you want to get the points for the Gold Card you will need to get a separate Gold Card with its $195 annual fee.
