Points rookie here. I’m looking to upgrade from Chase Sapphire Preferred to Reserve.

Still have 100k points on the CSP. Can I roll them over, or should I use them up first?

Also do you think I could get more than the standard welcome points or probably treated the same? Thanks!

You are only eligible to get one sign up bonus for the Sapphire cards every 4 years. It means that if you received SUB for CSP in the last 4 years, you won't get SUB for CSR until 4 years pass.
If 4 years have passed since your CSP SUB, call Chase and downgrade it to one of the (no annual fee) Freedom cards to keep your points, credit limit, and credit history. A few weeks after that downgrade is complete, apply directly to CSR.

This is so helpful, thank you! Will start on the plan. 🫡

How long ago did you get the bonus on the CSP? You may be able to get the SUB again.

No need to use the points, as long as the card is within the Sapphire/Freedom line. They'll stay there.

Good point. 👍🏻

Truth. Find faith and joy in submission to the LORD. If you’re pursuing perfection in this world, you’re going to be let down. God does have bigger plans for you but they are through these problems. Joseph, Moses, Job, Paul, Peter and everyone else we read about, lived a life of struggle, as many do today. Instead of trying to wish away little issues from the eternal perspective, look up and be a blessing to someone else. Selfless love. Shining the light of Christ.
