Update 8/4/19: Looks like this deal is back, will be useful for the Staples Visa no purchase fee deal. Unknown end date.
[Update 7/21/19: Readers are reporting the offer is back/available. I suspect it’s for those who did not use it previously as Chase often pushes it back/extends it for those who didn’t save it. This round expires 8/3/19.]

Our Verdict
This offer is showing widely for many Chase users. Some got the better end of the deal at 25% back, up to $17.50, while others got just 5% back, up to $3.
I’m not sure if this offer is showing with any of the other banks – a number of banks use the same back end for these offers. This includes: Chase, Bank of America, Regions Bank, Suntrust Bank, BBVA, BB&T, PNC, Columbia Bank, Beneficial Bank, and Christian Community CU. You can read this post for more information.
Unclear if it works online too or only in store. (Update: here’s a report indicating it does NOT work online.) Gift cards can be purchases from Staples, both in store and online, including Visa gift cards.
