(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.)

Push purchases to PayPal for three months. Walmart.com takes PayPal, as well as most online vendors other than Amazon.

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.com/

You'll get it back with your tax refund.
OP, is this is for Freedom and Freedom Flex cards only? if so, might want to change to "select Chase Freedom cardholders."

This is one of the stranger groups of Chase categories I've seen.
Last years Q4 had Costco and PayPal.

wonder if anyone could help me answer this: i bought Qatar airline ticket on its official site and chose Paypal to pay, which led me to a desktop version pop up paypal to compete the transaction. however it was dpcumented as qatar aorline not paypal and dodnt get the 5%
Would like to know this, as well. In same boat, only earned 1%.

Only eBay purchases paid with PayPal have correctly earned the 5% this quarter.

Even cash back business is tough that they moved from Costco to McDonald's…

I've been paying for my McDonald's with PayPal. Does that mean I get to double dip?

Buy gift cards at CVS which does accept Paypal even in-store. 7% = 1% base + 2% drugstores + 4% Paypal

I might try buying VISA gift cards again to see if CVS reversed their policy.
Be very careful with this, as it is manufactured spending, and as I understand it Chase is one of the better banks at cracking down on that.

Looking like a good time to ditch my PayPal card.

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.

I thought that allows you to be able to redeem the offers at a brick and mortar?

Are there ways to use this 5% Chase through PayPal for paying bills or donations if the organization isn't found through https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/...our_bills?

So far, progress is good. $949.53 in spend with a month to go - on track to be close to $1500.

The bulk of that is groceries through Walmart Curbside Pickup, which accepts PayPal as payment.

Looks like I won't be doing a PayPal tax payment.

Quote from MaxwellJ :
One of the issues with BofA cards compared to, say, Chase, is that any interaction with them is a royal pain. Including asking for refunds on things that weren't shipped, etc. Just so subpar. Shame, too, as my BofA card gives 3% for any online purchases.

I'm a student a looking to get another credit card for me . Which one would you suggest for everyday purchases cash back offers?

Chase Freedom always offers 5% for Lyft or is that my quarter too? If its always available would it stack with this? I would think it would not because when you get 5% from Paypal, you are not getting the additional 1% you would normally get so I think they are the same type of offers. However the 5% would stack with any saved offers.
