Chase Freedom Flex Q2 2024 Bonus Categories

Chase just announced the bonus categories for Q2 2024 for the Freedom Flex. If you haven’t picked it up yet, it is one of the best no annual fee cards out there. With April 1st right around the corner, activate the offer now so you can hit the ground running and max out your points once the new year starts.

Why This is Such a Great Card

The Chase Freedom Flex is an incredible no annual fee card which offers 5% cash back on rotating categories each quarter. Now, if you have a Chase Sapphire Preferred, the Sapphire Reserve, or the Ink Business Preferred, you can earn 5x Ultimate Rewards points instead of cash back. I value Ultimate Rewards points at 1.7 cents per point which increases your return from 5% to 8.5%.

You can earn 5 points per dollar on the first $1,500 spent across all categories each quarter for a total of 7,500 points. Maximizing each quarterly bonus means you can earn up to 30,000 points each year. That’s a crazy good deal especially considering this card has no annual fee.

Chase Freedom’s Q2 2024 Bonus Categories

You do need to activate this bonus, so why not just do it now? Registration opens today, March 15th and the bonus goes into effect on April 1st. All you have to do is go to https://www.chasebonus.com/ enter in your last name, ZIP code, and the last 4 digits of your card. Its as simple as that.

What’s in Store for Q2 2024

This quarter should be one of the easiest to max out. Coming up in the 2nd quarter we have the following bonus categories

  • Amazon purchases which includes Whole Foods

  • Hotels

  • Restaurants

Between restaurants and Amazon purchases you should be able to hit this pretty quickly. Keep in mind Amazon sells a lot of third party gift cards which you can use at other retailers like Lowe’s, Airbnb and Uber.

Keep in mind that this card does impose a 2.7% foreign transaction fee so try to only use this for hotels and restaurants in the US or its value proposition decreases by more than half.

How Else to Maximize This Offer: Amazon Reloads

If you aren’t close to hitting the $1,500 spend by the end of the quarter, you can always reload your Amazon balance and charge your card for future purchases.

Wrapping Up

The Chase Freedom Flex is one of the best no annual fee cards out there. Earning 5x points on the first $1,500 spent at Amazon, hotels and restaurants is an easy way to rack up a ton of points. This is another great card in your arsenal to always earn more than 1 point per dollar on all purchases.
