Chase Freedom Adds New Mobile Wallets Category to 5% Cash Back Rewards for 1st Quarter

by ·

Chase Freedom® announced that cardmembers can earn 5% cash back on up to $1500 in combined purchases in quarterly categories during the first three months of 2018, including purchases they make with the card in four mobile wallets. For the first time ever, cardmembers will earn the extra rewards through this new offer when using the following mobile wallets:

  • Chase Pay®
  • Apple Pay®
  • Android Pay™
  • Samsung Pay

The first quarter’s 5% categories also include purchases made at gas stations and with Internet, cable TV and phone service merchants, including AT&T, Verizon, Spotify, HULU and Netflix.

“We want Chase Freedom cardmembers to try — and enjoy — the convenience of mobile wallets,” said BJ Mahoney, General Manager of Chase Freedom. “They can maximize their rewards not only by paying for necessities, but also by splurging, like for their favorite coffee, when using a mobile wallet.”
