Our Verdict
Easiest way to meet the five transaction requirement is to do five small transactions at a self-checkout or at the gas pump.
There’s a similar offer on the Chase Marriott card. Also a similar offer for the Freedom cards, but the Ritz and Marriott offers are different than the Freedom offer in a bunch of ways:
- The Ritz offer is $25 vs. just $15 for the Freedom offer
- The Ritz offer does not mention any user limit while the Freedom offer is limited to the first 24,000 users
- The Ritz offer is for Apple Pay while the Freedom offer is for Android Pay
- The Ritz offer has a public landing page while the Freedom does not; it appears that everyone can get the Freedom offer, anyway, by adding their card to the mobile wallet
- The Ritz offer can be used anywhere while the Freedom offer is for the grocery only
Hat tip to reader jnrfalcon
did 5 apple pay purchases last week, 4 days after the 5th purchase posted I received the $25 credit. my 5 purchases totaled about $8. Also, In app apple pay purchases do count as 1 of my 5 was done in app ( a $2 load to a dd gift card in their app)
Gary, how long did it take after your 5th purchase posted before you saw the $25 credit?
4 days after the last one posted
Great deal. Thank you.
I wonder if this works for in app purchase.
Thanks
“tap-and-pay with Apple Pay” I would say just use it in person to be safe.
I didn’t see that tap and pay words in the landing page. Maybe I missed something?
Almost missed this one since the title originally says Andriod pay. and this appears no need to be grocery purchases. Easy 25 bucks.
its apple pay 🙁
Link and image shows Apple Pay.

Do you have to sign up for this? I see no activation link on the official page.
My understanding is that it’ll work for anyone.
no need to be grocery
Ugh, you are right. Let me edit. Thanks for pointing out.
Title says Android pay
Fixed, thanks
It appears this doesn’t require grocery.
