In 2020, we saw the introduction of a partnership between Chase and Lyft, offering the opportunity for cardmembers to earn bonus points and receive perks. Like most credit card partnerships, this one was limited time, and was supposed to expire on March 31, 2025.

Losing lyft pink will hit a small set of people hard in NYC as that included a citibike membership
This is a shame! I think I managed to put over $30k through lyft last year - nice points earner. I will probably rebalance towards uber a bit more as I often find it cheaper and 3x vs 5x doesn't make that big a diference
Let’s see what Delta and Uber come out with! Without 10X that may be the end of Lyft for me
In my city, I almost exclusively use Lyft. I used to be loyal to Uber (since that was the "main" one), but ever since I moved to where I live now Lyft has not only been cheaper, but has almost always offered shorter wait times than Uber, sometimes significantly so. I also like that Lyft's low-cost option is "wait and save" rather than a carpool. Being in a city, there are so many drivers that even choosing "wait and save" will rarely have you waiting more than 5 minutes for a ride.
10X Was really a gamechanger for me. 5X is still good and it stacks with Bilt, but will definitely start checking Uber at the same time too, which I never did unless Lyft pricing was crazy.
Half the reason I was considering product changing was to get the lyft pink, since free city bikes can be fantastic way to get home at night.
Downside of the Freedom Flex earning decreasing is that that is a Mastercard and so 3x Lyft rides per month earned a $5 credit -- so now it's a choice between working toward that credit and earning more points. Though I'm also now needing to strategize about the monthly rideshare credit from the United Explorer card...maybe I do Explorer card first, then Freedom Flex for the next three rides, and then Sapphire? Or if it's a month I know I won't get four rides, go Explorer card, then Sapphire.
They need to replace Delta with United (maybe likely given Chase ties) or American.
Seeing this really makes me wish Capital One and Uber could renew their expired agreement. Although Uber's dominant position probably makes this less likely, since they don't need it, whereas I suspect Lyft gets something worthwhile out of this Chase partnership.
I don’t have a built credit card but i was still able to sign up for a built rewards account so that I can earn built points while using Lyft. No idea why Alaska only gives 1x on Lyft rides when I get 2x with Built and can transfer to Alaska.
How does this compare to the AmEx Platinum monthly Uber credit given that AmEx rewards points are arguably more valuable than Chase rewards points?
The Delta partnership is still valid until April 7, as you’ve reported yourself, so maybe you should add that partnership to your list and remind people to change their partner selection on April 8.
If you look at the Marriott/Uber partnership, you already know.
Honestly, once Uber left the C1 Savor, it is an afterthought for me.
I had been using the CFF for 5x, but now, the Bilt card will get my Lyft spend.
