Get ready to rack up rewards: Cardholders of the Chase Freedom Flex® (see rates and fees) or the legacy Chase Freedom* can unlock 5% cash back (or 5 points per dollar) next quarter with Chase Travel℠, department stores, Old Navy and fan-favorite PayPal.
You can activate these categories now and start earning bonus rewards in these categories from the start of October. Once activated, you'll earn 5% back on up to $1,500 in combined spending across every category except PayPal from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31 (then 1% back). PayPal is only available during the month of December.
Here's what you need to know about this quarter's categories.
