Chase regularly offers 3-month spending bonuses at chase.com/mybonus.
Chase Spend and Get Offers | My Bonus | Chase.com
These bonuses have the following characteristics:
Chase Spend and Get Offers | My Bonus | Chase.com
These bonuses have the following characteristics:
- Offers are not visible in your Chase online account. You can view them only through the portal at the link above. Viewing an offer automatically registers your card for it.
- Offers are individually targeted. You may receive a different offer, or none at all, on a card type for which another FTer reports a bonus.
- A given card will have, at most, one applicable bonus offer at a time.
- Offers are typically for higher multiples of miles/points per dollar spent. Note that when an offer is for “10x on gas spend,” that means 10 points or miles per dollar total, including any category bonus native to the relevant card.
- If you downgrade a qualifying card during an offer period, the offer will still apply, but you will receive only the incremental benefit relative to the new card’s built-in category bonus, if any. For example, the Chase IHG Premier card always earns 5x on dining, so a 10x quarterly offer is worth an extra 5 points/dollar. If you downgrade to the IHG Traveler card (native 3x dining bonus), you will receive 8 total points per dollar (native 3x plus the promotional 5 points/dollar) for spending during the offer period.
- On very rare occasions, an offer may be for a fixed bonus contingent on the cardholder making a certain number of transactions of a minimum value. (For an early 2022 instance of this—5,000 UR for making 15 purchases of at least $2 each—see this post.)
- Most offers are for generic categories (gas, grocery, dining, etc.). On occasion, however, an offer may be for purchases with a specific Chase partner using the applicable co-branded card (e.g., United Airlines, Hyatt, IHG) or for a large merchant such as Amazon (Q422).
- Offers are usually capped at $1500 in spend. In some cases, however, the cap may be higher, e.g., extra miles on up to $6,000 in purchases from United Airlines on a United card.
- Bonuses are typically for standard quarterly periods, but offers may also run for other three-month periods (e.g., June/July/August). It is generally worth checking on, or even shortly before, the first of each month for any card that doesn’t currently have an associated offer.
- If you have a Q3 offer, you won’t be able to see any Q4 offer on that card until the Q3 offer expires. That said, Chase may send you an email notification a few days before the cutoff allowing you to view & pre-register for the upcoming offer.

Are Whole Foods delivery orders through Amazon categorized as groceries?
My past orders through Amazon were classed as "shopping." My most recent Whole Foods Amazon order was tagged as "groceries." Does anyone know if this means that Amazon has recategorized these transactions as groceries, or whether there is something else causing this? With the current bonus for grocery spend, this may influence where I shop and which card I use.

Yes, but my earlier Whole Foods delivery orders (4/20, 4/16) through Amazon were categorized as "shopping." Only the most recent one (4/28) was categorized as "groceries." I'm trying to figure out if I can rely on these transactions being classified as groceries in the future.

I imagine that if folks keep canceling the travel related cards because they are not traveling, this offer may be extended. I think it's pretty clearly an attempt to keep cardholders from bailing during the current crisis. It's a solid offer for the CSR; it would be a lot better if it were extended. The monthly limit is a problem for folks trying to manufacture spend, but for those of us who are just trying to buy the groceries we would anyway, it's a decent bump. I'm not going to turn my back on 15k points.

Just make it 6 months or the end of the year and stop with these penny pinching promos when they have just increased the AF by $100. It's just a bad look IMO.

This would be awesome if it got extended. Either way it's a great offer.
Makes me feel even better about cancelling my Amex Gold card.
It's way better than the competition... I'll take it.

Six moths would be better. Or even a year or two. I think it's going to be quite a while before travel returns to anything like it was. At the same time, folks in the travel industry are being extremely cautious about making commitments too far ahead (as witness the airlines waiting to cancel flights too far out). They may know that we're not going to return to normal anytime soon, but they don't want to risk missing out (on making money or simply losing less) by committing sooner than they have to.

I'm also thinking about stores like Fred Meyer in the Pacific Northwest, which sells a bit of everything.

YES. This comes really at the right timing since they also accept international groceries, not like Amex.
