Can You Combine Chase Points From The Sapphire Reserve For Business With The Sapphire Reserve Or Preferred?
Combining points across Chase cards can be a strategic move to maximize both the earning and redeeming potential of your Ultimate Rewards®. Historically, Chase has only allowed you to have one Sapphire Card at a time, but soon you'll be able to hold the Chase Sapphire Reserve for Business card* (launching on June 23) and the Chase Sapphire Reserve® or Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card.
Points from Chase's new premium business card will be able to be pooled with rewards from both of these consumer cards and a few no-annual-fee cards. Here's what you need to know about combining Chase points and how it can upgrade your travel plans.
Points pros have long relied on utilizing multiple Chase cards. It's particularly lucrative with a Chase trifecta, or a combination of cards that take advantage of the highest earning opportunities and the best redemptions.
The Sapphire Reserve for Business earns 8 points per dollar on Chase Travel purchases, 5 total points per dollar spent on eligible Lyft rides (through Sept. 30, 2027), 4 points per dollar on flights and hotels booked direct, 3 points per dollar on social media and search engine advertising, 1 point per dollar on all other purchases. That's great for travel, but earning 1X at restaurants and other everyday expenses can easily be beaten by other Chase cards like the Sapphire Preferred or Freedom Unlimited—which earn 3X at restaurants.
Transferring points to the Sapphire Reserve for Business could also give them more value if used to book with the card's new Points Boost program. With Points Boost, rewards can be redeemed for up to 2X when booking select hotels and flights with Chase Travel.
Ultimate Rewards from the Sapphire Reserve for Business can also be transferred to over a dozen airline and hotel partners at a 1:1 ratio, including World of Hyatt and United Airlines MileagePlus. I regularly get double the value from my miles with points transfers like this. Moving points to the Sapphire Reserve for Business is essentially a way to give other cards access to transfer partners and Points Boost bookings.
Ultimate Rewards earned on both consumer and business Chase cards can be combined under one card. Savvy cardholders move points to the card with the most valuable redemption options, like the Sapphire Reserve for Business.
If you hold multiple Chase cards, points can be transferred from one card to another, even if you have a mix of business and consumer cards. Points can also be combined with one other person in your household as long as you share the same address.
To combine points, follow these steps:
If you plan to combine points from a Chase business card with a consumer card, you'll need to call the number on the back of your business card. Additional security verification may be needed for the initial setup.Combining points is instant. You should see the new balance reflected in both accounts in just a few moments.
Cards that earn Ultimate Rewards points can be paired with the Sapphire Reserve for Business. Top recommendations include:
The best card combinations offer earnings and benefits that have minimal overlap. Getting the Sapphire Reserve for Business and a card like the Chase Freedom Flex® or the Ink Business Cash® Credit Card allows you to earn in multiple categories while paying one annual fee.
With the launch of the Sapphire Reserve for Business, Chase has turned a page on a longstanding rule that only allowed a person to hold one Sapphire card at a time. Now you can get the Sapphire Reserve for Business and the consumer Sapphire Reserve or Preferred.
It's not for everyone, but a case could be made to pair the Sapphire Reserve for Business with the consumer Sapphire Reserve. Paying the annual fee for both means a big bill. But if you can utilize the over $2,000 in credits offered on each card, it could make sense.
While keeping your business and personal expenses separate is a good idea, you're not only allowed to combine points from the Sapphire Reserve for Business with the Sapphire Preferred or Reserve, but this can be a powerful way to maximize your rewards. Spend strategically, redeem wisely and let your points go to work for you.

Trump golfs with Republican senators Schmitt, Graham and Paul ahead of 'Big, Beautiful Bill' vote
President Donald Trump played a round of golf with Republican leaders on Saturday. The president was joined by Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC., Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and CIA Director John Ratcliffe, sources confirmed to Fox News. The outing comes as Republican senators look to pass the "Big Beautiful Bill" by Saturday afternoon. The bill has a self-imposed deadline of July 4. In a memo sent on Saturday to Senate offices, the White House endorsed the latest revisions to the bill and called for its passage, while warning that failure to approve the budget "would be the ultimate betrayal". Graham shared the golf outing in a post on social media, expressing optimism over the bill's vote. Graham revealed the stitched-together text of the colossal bill late Friday night. Republican leaders, the White House and disparate factions within the Senate and House GOP have been meeting to find middle ground on other pain points, such as tweaking the caps on state and local tax (SALT) deductions. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hammered on the importance of passing Trump's bill on time. He met with Senate Republicans during their closed-door lunch and spread the message that advancing the colossal tax package would go a long way toward giving businesses more certainty in the wake of the president's tariffs. "We need certainty," he said. "With so much uncertainty, and having the bill on the president's desk by July 4 will give us great tax certainty, and I believe, accelerate the economy in the third quarter of the year."

Markets are gearing up for rate cuts. Morgan Stanley thinks investors will be disappointed.
Markets have been clamoring for rate cuts, and are eyeing the next two Fed meetings as possible windows. But Morgan Stanley analysts predict that the Fed won't be cutting rates in July or September. The market's view of rate cuts has brightened after recent dovish commentary. Economists at Morgan Stanley think investors are about to be disappointed in the outcomes of the next two Federal Reserve meetings. The bank said in a note on Friday that, despite a recent push from President Donald Trump and recent dovish talk from central bankers, the July and September FOMC meetings will result in no change to borrowing costs. The Fed's cautious approach this year has sparked backlash from President Trump, who has said he believes interest rates need to be cut "by at least 2-3 points." But since the last meeting, other top Fed officials have come out in support of rate cuts in July, with markets cheering the dovish talk. But Morgan Stanley says don't count on it. Their thesis centers around two key points. First, they expect that the economic data released in the short term will remain consistent with the "wait and see approach" displayed by Powell. While the Fed chairman has reaffirmed a need to further assess the impact of tariffs, he has also recently raised concerns regarding the reliability of economic data. "We expect firmer inflation prints showing more signs of a tariff push over the summer," the analysts note, adding that they also expect the coming employment report to be "relatively solid," both of which are factors unlikely to push the Fed toward rate cuts. They also highlight that despite the recent push from Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, the pro-rate-cut camp is relatively small. "The Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) published last week revealed that there are seven policymakers who expect no cuts this year," the report states. "In fact, the overall tone of Fed speakers this week was much more aligned with Chair Powell's." San Francisco Fed president Mary Daly and New York Fed president John Williams are examples of Fed officials who have taken a more hawkish approach to interest rates. Both have expressed sentiments similar to Powell's. Morgan Stanley added that both Waller and Bowman's statements raised the probability of rate cuts to 20% in July and 60%-90% in September. The higher odds were cheered by markets during the week, with more dovish forecasts helping propel the S&P 500 to a new all-time high. While Morgan Stanley's analysts note uncertainty remains high and that their predictions could be wrong, they maintain that firmer inflation prints will be coming later in the summer and will likely peak in July or August. They add that their forecast is aligned with Powell's expectations, which include tariffs pushing prices higher in the coming months. Read the original article on Business Insider
