Chase Freedom Bonus Categories

We love the Chase Freedom for this exact perk: rotating, quarterly 5x bonus categories. What does that mean? It means that every 3 months Chase Freedom releases a new list of bonus categories that you can earn 5x on throughout the quarter. It’s an incredible way to stack up points on purchases you’d be making otherwise, or purchases you can make in advance to earn more points. Let’s check out the Chase Freedom Bonus Categories for Q4 2019

There are a couple of caveats:

• The spending is capped at $1500 dollars
  • This means that your earning potential is maxed at out 7500 points or $75 cashback
• You must activate this perk each quarter, starting the 15th of the month prior, up until the 14th of the last month.

So what are the 4th quarter 2019 Chase Freedom Bonus categories?

• Department Stores
• PayPal
• ChasePay

How we use Chase Freedom to get closer to lie-flat seats and 5 star suites.

If you’re like me and carry a Chase Premium credit card like the Sapphire Preferred, Sapphire Reserve, or Ink Business Preferred then you can combine your Freedom points into those accounts in order to transfer them into valuable partners. This is by far the most advantageous usage of Ultimate Rewards, but also increases the value when redeemed in the Chase Travel center. For instance, if you move them into a Chase Sapphire Reserve account, your points will instantly be redeemable for 1.5cents per point, a 50% increase over redeeming them in the Freedom Chase Travel Center.

Don’t have a Chase premium card? You should definitely check out our thoughts and the latest offers on:

• Chase Sapphire Preferred
• Chase Sapphire Reserve
• Chase Ink Business Preferred

You can help us out by using our Chase Refer a Friend bonus

We get points when you sign up which aids us in taking more and more trips and providing helpful reviews.
