To activate a Chase Sapphire Preferred card, log in to Chase’s online credit card activation page and click on the card under “My Accounts” or call customer service at 800-432-3117. If activating by phone, enter the card number when prompted and listen to the automated menu options to find the one for card activation. Chase will require the cardholder’s Social Security number (or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) to activate the card.
How to Activate Chase Sapphire Preferred Online:
- Visit the Chase credit card verification page.
- Log in to your Chase account. If you don’t have one, you can create one, using your SSN/ITIN and card number or application number.
- Click “My Accounts.”
- Select the Sapphire Preferred card and click the button to activate it.
Once you activate your Chase Sapphire Preferred card, you’ll be able to use it immediately (or at least within minutes). And if you get any other Chase credit cards in the future, you can activate them using the same process, too. You cannot use your credit card without activating it.
