If I downgrade a card, can someone send me a referral so they can get points when I apply?

This is common in the churning community for the Sapphire cards. You do need to wait 48 months after you got the initial bonus. Let the annual fee hit. Then you product change to the OG Freedom, wait 5(?) or more business days, then apply for a Sapphire using a spouse/friend's referral. If it's a CSR, use the $300 travel credit (they won't claw it back) before the downgrade.

I know Amex does not give the bonus more than once. Not sure about other issuers.

How successful is changing a card product within Chase? I have a Chase card that I’d love to switch over to a different product that’s more travel friendly.

Depends on the offer language. If you qualify for the bonus, they should too. But most cards have a cooldown period or lifetime language preventing you from getting an offer.

For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)
