(When viewing the quarterly categories outside of logging in to chase.com, it says info coming soon. However, when logging in to credit card and viewing the details link next to where it shows current categories....see 2nd screenshot I have here.............it shows all the year's categories, including the above Q4 list, which I've attached as pic #1 here.)

If you haven't hit your $1500 maximum by the end of the quarter, send money to yourself or a family member using PayPal. There's a 2.9% + $0.30 transaction fee, so you pocket 2%.
Edit: I like another posters idea of making a quarterly tax payment using PayPal. 2% fee, pocket 3%. Plus, no risk of it being categorized as a cash advance. https://www.payusatax.c
You'll get it back with your tax refund.
This is one of the stranger groups of Chase categories I've seen.

They cut the non-paypal cb from 2% to 1.5%.
I got a new card that pays 2.625% on everything (BofA w/ platinum rewards)
They don't integrate with quicken. Annoying.
So, the only value the card has was a measley extra 0.675% on PayPal purchases, hardly worth it.
And, for the nail in the coffin, this card at 5% will cream it for the holidays.
The only reason I have a PayPal debit card is to keep it on file with T-Mobile to get the autopay discount. I pay early with my Freedom Flex credit card every month for the free cell phone insurance.
It's a bit of finagling for sure, but it's kinda easy to max this quarter. I suspect everyone that's sh1tting on this quarter doesn't know or can't be bothered with this. Also not to mention loads of online retailers take PayPal as well. There was something I wanted to buy last week but since this category showed up, I'm putting that on pause until next Tuesday.
Or you can buy $1500 worth of Big Macs. Whatever.

Payments made through the Xoom transfer service are not eligible for 5%. Please note, Person-to- Person (P2P) transactions made with your Chase Freedom card on PayPal may be prohibited or not eligible for 5%.
Like with google pay app?

Alternatively VanillaGift accepts PayPal as payment so you can buy no-fee Visa gift cards using the current coupon code. Get the e-gift card version for instant delivery, then add it to ApplePay so you can use for in-store purchases. Pocket all 5%.

Having said all that, the solution is to go to the vendor/merchant site under your account and removing PayPal as a payment option. Once PayPal is removed you would then select it again which should provide you with the option to select a credit card (note that the same thing above will happen and that credit card will continue to be used in the future no matter what your PayPal preferred card is). Not a great solution and you just have to remember to remove and re-add PayPal with a different card in these situations (e.g. Discover has PayPal as a bonus in a future quarter and you now want to use Discover with that merchant).
You can also do it within PayPal. It's under "manage autopay" in main menu. Choose the vendor you have set payment, and then in Manage tab you can change your payment method.
I might try buying VISA gift cards again to see if CVS reversed their policy.
The two CVS near me has a sign near their gift card rack stating not for sale. The staff informed me all the gift cards have been compromised and it's not safe to sell them. Such a bummer.
I have bought a $500 VISA gift card for the past two statement cycles with my Citi Custom Cash at Stop and Shop. 4% statement credit + 5%. After the $5.95 activation fee, I net $39.35
Coming up in November and in December, I will be buying two $500 VISA gift cards each month on my Citi Shop Your Way card. I get $150 statement credit on $1000 and 3% points on the $1000 which can be converted to gift cards (Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc)
Just do paypal debit card, use it online or offline . They give 5% back on category you choose. You can stack others offers shown in app on top of it ( ex: 5% back on Walmart + 5% boost with PayPal debit card).
