Chase Freedom provides a quarterly bonus where you can earn 5x cash back (and ultimately 5x Ultimate Rewards) on up to $1,500 in spend per quarter. During Q2, the bonus categories were warehouse clubs (i.e. Costco) and grocery stores. While the quarter isn't over, it's looking like we'll max at least one of our Freedom cards to earn the full 7,500 Ultimate Rewards points.
Registration/activation is open for Q3 which offers 5x at restaurants. We had the same category in Q2 of 2015 and had no trouble maxing one of our cards during the quarter. Chase has also kept warehouse clubs on for Q3 likely due to the Costco migration away from American Express.
Chase has announced that the Q4 category will be "holiday shopping" which likely means Amazon. Last year, Chase offered 10x at Amazon instead of the normal 5x throughout the holidays. I'm hoping they do the same this year as that is a phenomenal opportunity to earn 10x while shopping for holiday gifts!
