How to earn and redeem Chase Ultimate Rewards points

• Paid reservations
• Restaurant bookings
• Hotel reservations
• Airfare

Depending on the Chase credit card you use, you could be eligible for a range of perks and rewards. Chase branded credit cards, such as Freedom^®, Sapphire^® and Ink^®, allow cardmembers to earn points that can be redeemed on the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal.

Accessing the Chase Travel portal

To access the portal, go to the booking platform at www.chasetravel.com or login to your Chase Ultimate Rewards account and go to your Chase credit card’s main dashboard.

Next, click on the “Earn/Use” button where the number of points you have is listed. Choose “Travel” from the options listed, and this will take you to the travel portal.

How to book flights through Chase Travel portal

Rather than making your flight purchases externally, you might want to consider booking your flights using the Chase Travel portal. To do this, access the travel portal and search for the flight you want. You can filter your search by cost, airline, departure/arrival time and departure airport.

Once you’ve found the flight of your choice, select your option and purchase your flight using your Chase card. If you have Ultimate Rewards points available, you may be able to use them towards your flight, and/or other travel-related purchases.

Booking hotels through the Chase Travel portal

Similar to flights, you can redeem your Ultimate Rewards for hotel reservations. To do this, search by destination to see available hotels. You can narrow your search by filtering for price/amenities/ratings, type of property, number of bedrooms, neighborhood and more.

Select your hotel option, then continue to confirm your booking using your Chase card or redeeming your Ultimate Rewards for your purchases.

How to book rental cars, cruises and other types of travel

You can use the portal to book rental cars, activities and other travel-related purchases. To book a cruise line, you need to call directly.

The benefits of booking travel in Chase Travel portal

Travel costs can add up easily, but if you’re using the portal to redeem your points, you could be making good use of the rewards you have earned. On the other hand, using the portal for travel purchases could also help you earn more points on your purchases. For example, you might be able to earn even more points on flights if you book through portal using your Chase branded credit card. These points could later be redeemed on your future travels.
