Pro-tip: You can use your Chase Freedom points for free hotel rooms and airline tickets when you transfer the points to your Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card.
How to Maximize This Offer
Grocery Stores
Spending $1,500 at grocery stores over three months isn’t that hard to do. Especially now. So it’s easy to maximize this offer.
Many grocery stores sell gift cards such as Visa gift cards, restaurant gift cards, and gas gift cards. You can buy $1,500 in gift cards and earn 5% cash back or 5X points.
If your grocery store doesn’t sell gift cards you could stock up on buying snacks and other items. It could be worth buying things now that you plan to use in a few months to get the extra cashback and 5X points.
Pro-tip: Here’s another easy way to max out your Chase Freedom bonus at the grocery store.
Select Streaming Services
You can maximize the 5X category bonus on your Chase Freedom card by changing your billing information on these select streaming services:
- Apple Music
- Disney+
- ESPN+
- FuboTV
- Google Play
- Hulu
- Netflix
- Pandora
- SiriusXM
- Sling
- Spotify
- Vudu
- YouTube
Charges for Amazon Prime aren’t eligible for bonus points. 🙁
Pro-tip: The name on the Netflix account has to match the name on the credit card. So you can’t use your partner’s card, or a friend’s. 🙁
Fitness Clubs and Gym Memberships
It could be a little difficult to spend $1,500 on fitness clubs and gym memberships for the new few months. But you can still maximize the bonus.
Some gym memberships like ClassPass, Orangetheory, and Planet Fitness offer online fitness classes and training.
