The Offer
Update: People who aren’t CPC have also reported receiving this offer.
- Reddit user artgriego & US Credit Card Guide are reporting that some people are being targeted for the following offer on the Chase Freedom Unlimited:
- $300 cash back (really 30,000 Chase UR points) after $500 in spend
- $25 cash back (really 2,500 Chase UR points) after adding an authorized user and them making their first purchase
Asking To Be Matched
We saw a similar offer in branch on the Chase Sapphire Preferred. As long as you applied in the branch within the last 90 days I imagine you’ll be approved for a match.
Card Details
- No annual fee
- Card earns 1.5x points on all purchases
Our Verdict
Normal sign up bonus is $150 + $25, so this is basically a double bonus. It sucks that the Chase 5/24 rule applies to this card. It might be worth going in branch and checking to see if you have any pre-approved offers, even if you don’t have one of the increased bonus offers (I believe these are actually restricted to CPC) you could apply for the card and then asked to be matched but there is obviously no guarantee it will work. The upside is that if you’re pre-approved in the branch then that usually by-passes the Chase 5/24 rule, any questions you have about that will be answered here.
If you have any questions about Chase in general, they will be answered here. If anybody knows of any other increased sign up bonuses in branch, please let us know in the comments below!
