You can now activate your 5% cash back/5 Ultimate Rewards points per $ spent (up to $1,500) in bonus categories on your Chase Freedom card and on your Chase Freedom Flex Card. You need to activate by June 14, 2022. The 2nd quarter bonus categories are Amazon (yay) and select streaming services.
Personally, I wouldn’t go crazy in switching your streaming services cards just for this limited time (unless you want to). After all, I bet many of us will likely hit the $1500 in spend on Amazon in the 3 months.
REMEMBER-the 5x does not start until April 1, so do not change your Amazon payment method till then.
You can keep track of your category spending too, so you don’t go over the $1,500 spend cap (and then only earn 1:1). After you log into Chase, click on your Ultimate Rewards points. You will get a menu at the top with one choice being “Rewards Activity”. If you click that, you will see how much you have spent for that quarter and can figure out when you are close to the $1500.
