I don't have Chase freedom card, any benefit and sign up bonus? I thought the card only earn cash back. Thanks!
Freedom earns UR points.  UR points can be used for cash back or for miles if you also have a Sapphire Preferred.
You can get $150 cash back for opening one: http://www.dansdeals.com/go/freedom150/
If you also have a Chase Checking account you get 10 points for each transaction made on the freedom card in addition to 1-5 UR points per dollar spent.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Freedom offers Ultimate Rewards (UR) which can be used for many things.  Sapphire preferred also uses UR and allows you to transfer to CO, Hyatt, or BA at 1:1.  And you can put your UR from freedom into your sapphire UR and transfer all of them to those programs.

The real benefit to freedom is that if you are a chase banking customer you get an additional 10 points per purchase.  This is great for small purchases especially if you then transfer that to CO miles.

I believe the freedom card is offering some cash back sign up bonus (follow Dan's link above).  I am not sure if that comes as actual cash back or in UR points.

Looks like they might be catching on already?
Do you guys think I should send my SM now, before they catch on, or wait until I received the card and made a purchase.  I don't want to miss out on the additional 30k.



Springles: It doesn't say preferred in your Chase online account, mine is the same way.
Thanks, just wanted to make sure

You think he could get away with transferring them to CO or Hyatt before they catch on?
