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.

Groceries was already a bonus category for Chase Freedom for April - June, 2020. The list of eligible and ineligible merchants is here. Walmart and Target are explicitly excluded:

It is a Meh offer.
They should do what Citi Prestige card does - now their $250 travel credit can be used at grocery store and restaurant while CSR still is strict travel related only, except for UberEat. Meh.

We have the big WalMart much closer to home than the Neighborhood Market. What I do is to buy WalMart gift cards at the Neighborhood Market to use at both the big WalMart and at Sam's which carries some items not found at WalMarts, such as whole steelhead trout (farmed raised at Peru)., Australia lamb racks, US Prime Grade Angus steaks, and Argentine pink shrimps. The good thing about Sam's is, their fish / poultry / meat packages are in "normal sizes", not gigantic like Costco, and it never has as many shoppers as at Costco.which even under current restriction, it is near impossible to keep social distancing once inside the store.
Or, just buy the Visa GC when Staples have Zero fee, using the Inks and then use the VGCs at WalMart / Sam's.

I expect Chase might do 5x on groceries and streaming again for Q3 on Freedom when they announce. One major advantage for not announcing the categories ahead. Chase did already extend streaming service (albeit a much smaller list than AmEx's streaming list) into Q2. That will likely help balance out the $1500 per quarter limit.
So, this two month Chase deal concept on groceries was a misfire compare to AmEx, no doubt.

And 5X on my CSR and 6X on my Marriott card (plus 12X on my Aspire) for groceries is much appreciated. I don’t think Chase is going to make any profits on my grocery shopping trips for the next two months, so while 6 months or five years would be better, I fully understand why they limit it for the time being.
Presumably you could also buy from Amazon or Best Buy with gift cards acquired at another grocery store.

Probably not, based on the Chase Freedom list: https://creditcards.chase.com/freedo...ards/merchants

Could these offers, specifically the Sapphire Reserve 5x grocery purchases, be targeted?
(The only references to these offers are on blogs, forums and individual emails, nothing on any Chase website, nothing on my Chase account. The Sapphire Reserve links go to an application landing page which does not mention the temporary COVID-19 promos.)

It's also reported by Forbes. https://www.forbes.com/sites/ericros...l#255a8f544fc7

It will be easy to max out both offers. Or you can simply declare “So what,” and pass up the additional 15,000 UR points.
Your choice.
