Chase has launched another practical perk. After you register for the offer, cardholders of the Freedom family (Freedom, Freedom Unlimited, and Freedom Flex) can earn 5x points in February. The limit is a bit low, capped at $150, which means 750 points. If you have one of these cards, be sure to register using the links below before you can take advantage of it.
Freedom cards are still a good choice for long-term holding and everyday spending.
