New perk: Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders get top-tier Lyft status

Chase cardholders already enjoy earning additional points for Lyft rides, but the Lyft experience for Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders has gotten even better.

As of Tuesday, cardholders can receive a complimentary Lyft Pink All Access membership for two years as well as a 50% discount on a third year.

You might recall that Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders previously received a complimentary lower-tier Pink membership as a perk of the card but that ended in March.

Even for those who don’t use ride-hailing services very often, the All Access membership offers some surprising value. Let’s break down what you need to know to maximize this Chase Sapphire Reserve benefit.

Bottom line

The Lyft Pink All Access Membership is a valuable addition to the lineup of perks on the Chase Sapphire Reserve card that makes the annual fee worth paying for cardholders.

Even for those who rarely use ride-hailing services, this membership brings some serious value beyond free upgrades and savings on ride cancellation fees. Members also benefit from Lyft’s bike and scooter options, roadside assistance for personal car use, rental car upgrades and an extended complimentary Grubhub+ trial.

And right now, the Chase Sapphire Reserve card is offering a sign-up bonus of 80,000 points after you spend $4,000 in the first three months, which is the highest bonus we’ve seen on this card in over five years. With the elevated sign-up offer and new Lyft Pink All Access Membership perk, now is an excellent time to apply for the card.
