Most Chase cardholders know that they earn additional points for Lyft rides, but the Lyft experience for Chase Sapphire Reserve® cardholders has even more to offer.

Cardholders can also receive a complimentary Lyft Pink All Access membership for two years as well as a 50% discount on a third year.

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.

What is Lyft Pink All Access?

Lyft Pink All Access is the highest level of Lyft's membership program. This membership ordinarily costs $199 annually and offers an array of benefits:

  • Free priority pickup upgrades
  • Member-exclusive pricing
  • Relaxed ride cancellations and lost & found fees
  • Unlimited 45-min classic bike rides
  • Free unlimited bike and scooter unlocks
  • Discounted bike and scooter rates
  • Three bike or scooter guest passes per year
