Set up PayPal so you can pay with QR codes. Link your Chase freedom flex as the payment method.

CVS is one of the few places that take PayPal QR codes as payment. It's been recommended to use self checkout, if possible. Once you add the gift card, DO NOT click any payment method on the self checkout terminal. Instead, scan your PayPal QR code like you are buying something. Then it will allow you to checkout and pay with PayPal.

If it does indeed stack with the 2% back at drug stores as the other thread suggests, that's 11% back on up to $1500.
I don't think you read the whole post...
It is only for Freedom Flex.

Where exactly do you see these pending points?
I see them on the Ultimate Rewards home page, and also on the Rewards Activity page.

in your account log in and click on the number of points to the right of the main page. This will take you to the main rewards page that has all the points breakdown, pending points and everything else related to it.

I received the 4% on the top spending category on my Feb statement. You may want to wait for your Feb to see it.

Just read that PayPal still had to be used in certain categories for the 9%. I should've read more carefully.

I used exclusively PP to check out and it doesn't seem like I got 4% extra at all. I think it also evaluated where I made the PP transaction. What did people get for their bonus amount?

Just saw the bonus points added to "xxxx points with your next statement".
Quote from BTC007 :
I'm seeing that as well, and based upon the pending rewards amount, and assuming my math is correct, the 4th quarter Paypal purchases at drugstores earned 11%.

Where do you see that verbiage..."bonus points added to.....?"

On my Jan statement (late January), I see one line item with "top spend" under rewards summary "Addl 4%/$1 on top spend grocery strs." Not sure if that is the one.

Thanks

It was before points were posted. now you can just check your rewards activity. once you get to the rewards page on their website, click the "Reward activities" from the left side menu, then you will see "Top Spend Category Bonus Q4 2021" listed under the "Your earnings breakdown so far this year" section.
