For gas stations that charge cash and credit prices, using a gift card gets you the "cash" price. Pretty nifty.

Walmart has never been included.

You'd be doing all that loading up on Amazon Gift Cards for just 5%? If that's your approach for Amazon, and you have Prime, I'd recommend just applying for the Amazon Prime credit card (a Visa card from Chase) which gives 5% back on every Amazon purchase anyway, with no dollar limit. (Whereas, Chase Freedom and Discover both limit to $1,500 worth of purchases per quarter for their 5% calendars; anything after $1,500 spent in the quarter only gets you a measly 1% back).
The Prime credit card also occasionally offers sign-up bonuses, such as a $100 Amazon gift card loaded to your account immediately upon approval. You can read up more about it here [amazon.com].

Honestly, for a frequent Amazon shopper who already has Prime, getting that card is a no-brainer. And perhaps more importantly than 5% back, is that since you'd be making your purchases with a Credit card rather than Gift cards, you'd add all the benefits that a Credit card provides which using a Gift card would forfeit (Extended Warranty, purchase protection, etc.)

Quote from greymoose :
This is misleading and you will NOT get 5% back.

Walmart is an exclusion, whether you're buying peanut butter, paper towels, pajamas, or paint -- in store or online -- despite how the purchase is 'coded.' Chase has had Walmart as a category before and then you would get 5% back. Chase has had grocery stores as a category before and I have NEVER gotten 5% back on groceries at Walmart (or Target FWIW).
Correct, unfortunately. Even when I go to my Walmart Neighborhood Market (which is exclusively a grocery store and not a general Walmart or Walmart superstore), Chase or any other credit card that gives extra cash back % for grocery stores still won't give the bonus for it.

It's pretty lame.

I wish they had better clarity on what stores are covered too!
I swore Chase used to publish a list of merchants for various categories. Maintaining that list on a static webpage must have been too much upkeep.

Visa also used to have a tool that did that: https://www.visa.com/supplierlocator-app/app/

Amex has a tool, but it's wonky sometimes: https://www.americanexpress.com/en-us/maps


https://awardwallet.com/merchants
That's tool I use. Especially when I travel and am unfamiliar with the merchants in that area.

Sure, same as Freedom is capped at $1500 per quarter.

Likewise in both cases you can have more than 1 of them, and you get a new cap with each card.


Quote from Magicpants217 :
A bit unrelated but does anyone know if Freedom Flex points and Amz Prime Visa points could be converted/transferred to UR points? I have some Amz Prime Visa points and was wondering if I could use those in UR portal. TIA!

Freedom family points are already UR and you can freely transfer them between any other UR cards personal or business in your account... As to Amazon AFAIK if it's not UR points then it's not UR points, and nothing converts into UR from another currency.

These really should be in Consumer Awareness. I know fewer members would see it here. But Chase emails us all ahead of time to click to activate it.

Sometimes mods let these announcements stay in hot deals and even give it FP. Nothing wrong with a PSA/heads-up, but this is not an actual deal. I'll prob get TD, but it's my logical opinion.
Good for you, OP.

You get 5% using Chase Freedom or Chase Freedom Flex linked to Paypal.

Yup. People who are using them for cash back only are doing it wrong. I get so much better value for transferring to airlines.

I transfer them to Sapphire reserved which makes it 50% more worth

Freedom and F. Flex points can be converted to UR if you have a more premium UR card already. Most points people have an Ink Card, a Sapphire card, and 1-3 Freedom cards. Makes it easy to get free vacations at some really premium locations. Getting a 7-10 night stay at Andaz Maui is a great redemption, especially if you can rock it with some Globalist status.

A braggart who left the important part out of needing $100K in money at Bank of America or Merrill

It never fails that cgigate brags about his 5.25% while leaving out the important requirement.

They used to link activation on their home page once you log in. The link now will take you to the reward page but activation button is no where to be found.
