JPMorgan Hikes Sapphire Reserve Fee to $795 in Card Overhaul

JPMorgan Chase & Co. will hike the annual fee on its popular Sapphire Reserve credit card to $795 and launch a similarly priced version for businesses as part of an overhaul marking the biggest US bank’s latest volley in the ultra-competitive world of premium credit cards.

The new fee is an increase for the consumer version, which has been $550 a year since 2020. JPMorgan is also reshaping its rewards for the cards, according to a statement Tuesday, placing more emphasis on the bank’s own travel and dining offerings that it assembled through a series of acquisitions and investments in recent years.
