Chase Freedom Cards Offer Up to $250 Bonus Cash Back
WHY IT MATTERS
These offers can be valuable additions to a Chase Ultimate Rewards strategy, particularly for those who already hold a Sapphire Preferred, Sapphire Reserve, or Ink Business Preferred. The Freedom Flex's $250 bonus can effectively become 25,000 transferable Ultimate Rewards points, while the Freedom Unlimited's $200 bonus can become 20,000 points.
What happened
The Chase Freedom Flex and Freedom Unlimited credit cards offer attractive welcome offers and earning rates with no annual fee. New cardholders can earn up to $250 cash back after spending $500 on purchases in the first three months from account opening.
The Freedom Flex also offers 5% cash back on rotating categories, while the Freedom Unlimited provides a simpler 1. 5% cash-back rate on everyday spending.
Cardholders can maximize their rewards by combining points with select Chase cards, such as the Chase Sapphire Preferred, to transfer them to airline and hotel partners. The Points Boost feature on select hotels booked through Chase Travel can also increase the value of points.
