It's the new Freedom Flex card that has that offer. The Freedom Flex card is an MC card.
thanks! My UAL Explorer is a visa. Will it be difficult to get chase approval if I dump the visa and request the mc?
also what is the deadline for that free $200?
i appreciate the 0 annual fee.
It turns out the Freedom Unlimited also has the same $200 signup offer as the Freedom Flex. The Freedom Unlimited is a Visa which earns 1.5x UR points year-round. The Freedeom Flex is an MC with rotating 5x UR points quarterly categories (and otherwise earns 1x). Both have 0 annual fee.
Chase has not disclosed the deadline for either one.
And, btw, although Chase phrases it as $200, it's actually 20000 UR points in both cases, which while you can redeem it for cashback, there are other options.
