The Chase Freedom and Freedom Flex categories for the second quarter of 2025 can now be activated:
- Earn 5% cash back on up to $1,500 in combined purchases on Amazon and Select Streaming Services from 4/1/2025 – 6/30/2025.
Some people will find Amazon useful. Personally I have a big Amazon gift card balance and probably won’t use that.
You can also buy third-party gift cards on Amazon (affiliate link), such as Visa, Best Buy, Starbucks, Lowe’s, Safeway and dozens more. Even someone with a large Amazon gift card balance might find this Chase Freedom category useful for Amazon or third-party gift cards purchases since gift card bought on Amazon can not be paid for with an Amazon balance.
Streaming is inherently limited and not too exciting. I can’t yet find the link with the details on which streaming services count. (It might be possible to load up your Apple or Google Play balances with this category; let us know if you see anything like this work.)
You can activate the 5% categories at this link. Personally I always wait for the email and activate it through the link in the email.
