Does it work that way?
If you buy via Chase, you will get RR points for your travel. And get credit for a paid flight. If either of those is important, then buying via Chase may be the better bet.

Since I am not going for CP or A-list - it does not matter to me and the ease of use via transferring points makes that a better option.

It all depends.
