Extended through June 30, 2022

Doctor of Credit got the scoop on the categories that Chase will use for Pay Yourself back starting tomorrow, October 1st and going through March 31 June 30, 2022.

If you aren’t familiar, here’s what Chase Pay Yourself Back is.

First and foremost, if you want to use an existing PYB category, like dining on the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card or home improvement stores, do that today!! You won’t be able to tomorrow.

On the Chase Sapphire Preferred card, the categories of home improvement stores, dining, and supermarkets will end. In their place will be luggage from Away and Airbnb. Yes, it’s not very exciting (I guess unless you stay at Airbnb a lot).

On the Chase Sapphire Reserve® card, dining remains as a category (and even though this will annoy many, I think it’s a smart move for them to differentiate the Reserve from the Preferred. Other than that, it will match the Preferred with Away and Airbnb.

As always, Preferred gets 1.25 cents a point in value while Reserve gets 1.5 cents per point.

I got "in the game" in 2003 and since then I've collected literally millions and millions of frequent flyer miles and hotel points. I've flown around the world in first class seats that would cost $29,000 using frequent flyer miles and a few bucks in tax. And I've stayed in some of the finest hotels - all for free! Several years ago, I realized many of my friends actually thought I was paying for these!! So I started sharing my tips. It's long been a passion, but when I hosted a session on Miles and Points at the South by Southwest festival, my love of the game intensified and this blog was born. Since then, I've written my book, MilesTalk: Live Your Wildest Travel Dreams Using Miles and Points (2nd Edition) - (author profile), give seminars on miles and points all over the world, and occasionally write for publications such as Frommer's and Forbes Advisor.
