Eligible Chase cardholders can get rewarded this summer for fueling their vehicles, seeking fun away from home, and finding a silver screen to shield them from the heat.
From July 1 to Sept. 30, 2024, Chase Freedom Flex℠ cardholders can earn 5% cash back on up to $1,500 in combined quarterly spending at the following merchants (activation required; 1% back on all other non-bonus-category spending):
-
Gas stations and electric vehicle charging.
-
Select live entertainment.
-
Movie theaters.
Gas stations, EV charging and select live entertainment are repeat categories from the Q3 2023 bonus calendar. Movie theaters are an addition this year, and were previously excluded from the select live entertainment category.
