[Updated 5/4/20]
Reader Betelgeuse noticed that it’s no longer possible to generate referral links on Chase business cards like the INK Preferred or Cash. Various error messages pop up. I’m seeing the same on my cards.
Additionally, you can no longer refer TO a Chase Freedom card (though Chase Freedom cardholders can generate a referral link to refer to the Freedom Unlimited card). And non-Preferred Sapphire cardholders apparently can’t generate links from their card either.
Chase Refer A Friend page | Referral offer landing page
Existing referrals links that you’ve previously generated do continue to work, though that might die at some point.
The only cards showing right now for referrals are: Freedom Unlimited, Sapphire Preferred, Southwest cards, United Explorer, British Airways, Marriott Bonvoy, World of Hyatt, IHG, Disney. (Southwest is working even for the business Southwest version.)
This is all in line with what Chase has done recently requiring login to apply for a Chase business card and removing business cards from affiliate channels and making it harder, generally, to get approved for a business card.

Can’t generate referral links anymore for both Freedom Unlimited and CSP. Just getting the “We are unable to locate any offers for you at this time” message.
It worked back in June for both cards.
FWIW, I think existing referral links for the CIP are now dead too. I just tried to view one I created in February, and it doesn’t work.
You can stick these cards where the sun don’t shine. I had 2 freedom cards and a personal checking account with Chase. I used these cards for everything and never carried cash. Paid my balance in full every month and was never late. I was a loyal customer for more than 10 years. Chase for no reason decided to close all my accounts including my checking account that I never was over drawn. When I talked to all the bank representatives none of them could give me an explanation why this happened only stating that it was in their best interest. I had auto pay and direct deposit with this bank and had to change everything to another bank. I would not recommend this bank to anyone. This is no way to treat customers and not willing to provide a reasonable explanation. This may very well happen to you when you least expect it as it happened to me. Never would want this to happen to my friends or family. I intend to report this to the BBB as soon as I can get thru to them.
I have a working referral link for freedom card in my P2 email , but email states apply by 05/02. i am not sure whether referral is still valid.
Weird thing about the Freedom one is that I was getting emails from Chase with referral links every week. The one they sent me last week is still working, but no longer has the choice for Freedom, just Unlimited. As with others, can’t generate any biz ones. CSR never had a referral, did it?
Oh, maybe you’re right, I’ll delete that line.
DP: Tried generating referral codes for CIP, Freedom, CSR, & CSP and received this message on all three- “We are unable to locate any offers for you at this time. We are currently unable to identify your account. Please contact us using the number on the back of your card.”
referral bonus for existing link didn’t post, its been 3 weeks since approval.
wait another statement cycle and report back if you could.
DP: I am also unable to generate a new referral link as of Thursday. However, I had an old link saved that is still working.
I can still refer from SW Priority to all 5 SW cards, including business. My CIP link still works to load the application page for the 80k/5k offer.
Are you still able to GENERATE a referral on Southwest cards?
Yes on SW. I can’t generate a CIP referral (might be due to tighter rules and/or because I downgraded the card).
Thanks, updated the post
