Hey awardtrail readers, quick heads-up for all you Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders! Remember that awesome $150 annual credit you get towards StubHub purchases? Well, it's not automatic like most of the other perks on the card. You actually have to activate it before you buy your tickets.
Seriously, don't be that person who spends $100 on concert tickets only to realize they forgot to activate the credit! To activate, just log in to your Chase account, navigate to "Card Benefits," find the StubHub offer, and hit that "Activate" button. It's super easy and only takes a second.
The article author at Doctor of Credit highlights this because it's easy to miss – unlike the DoorDash or Apple TV+ credits, where you activate at the time of purchase, this one lives separately. So, before you snag those tickets to see your favorite band, make sure you've activated that credit. Happy travels (and concert-going)!
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
