As of Oct 2019, offer is as follows:
What can I do with Chase Freedom Ultimate Rewards (UR) points?
More info here: http://thepointsguy.com/2015/09/maxi...hase-trifecta/
Can I apply for this card and earn the bonus after doing so previously?
- $200 (20K UR points) for $500 spend in first 3 months.
- No annual fees.
- This is the best available offer since the past few years.
- Public Application Link
What can I do with Chase Freedom Ultimate Rewards (UR) points?
- Transfer them to a Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Sapphire Reserve, or Chase Ink Business UR points at 1:1. If you own one of those cards, this is probably the best option for you.
- Redeem for cash back (statement credit or to a checking account), 1 cent per UR point. So, the 20K UR points for signing up will get you $200 cash back. This is generally the default option if you do not own a Sapphire or Ink card.
- Redeem them for various gift cards, or shop with points at Amazon.com (usually same value as cash back, eg. $25 for 2500 UR).
- Book flights/hotels/car rental/activities through Ultimate Rewards, and pay in full or in part using points (1 cent per UR).

I applied with husband's name and am going to transfer the URs to my new CSP account.
Great card for $0 AF.

So I, son and husband just picked up this card in December, only I have the CSP card presently( husband had canceled a good year ago when I picked up mine)
My question is , can both my husband and son's points be transferred to my Ultimate Rewards?

How long does it take for the points to post (for anyone who got in on this)? I'm not really much of a churner but I don't fly UA anymore so I no longer wanted to pay the fee for my UA card and switched to this one since Chase is my primary bank. I hit the $500 spend on my first billing cycle which closed Dec 16 and the points for that billing cycle posted but I still haven't gotten the 20k bonus points.

Fwiw, My first statement closed this week and I already have the 20K + 5% transaction points in my account.

Ah that may be the cause. My card arrived over the thanksgiving holiday so I wasn't even home to start using it for the first 2/3 of the billing period so that seems a likely explanation, if it doesn't post after this cycle I'll just call in
