Chase Raises Freedom Unlimited Sign-Up Bonus to $300 for a Limited Time

Pairing with a Chase Sapphire or Ink account can increase the bonus’s travel value through Ultimate Rewards.

Overview

  • New applicants can earn $300 after spending $500 in the first three months, an increase from the previous $200 offer.
  • WTOP reports the promotion runs through Jan. 15, while Thrifty Traveler says Chase has not specified an official end date.
  • The card earns 5% back on travel booked through Chase Travel, 3% on dining and drugstore purchases, and 1.5% on other purchases with no annual fee.
  • Holders of a Sapphire or Ink Business Preferred card can convert the cash bonus into roughly 30,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points for travel redemptions.
  • Terms include a 0% intro APR on purchases and balance transfers for 15 months (then 18.49%–27.99% variable), a 3% foreign transaction fee, and eligibility limits such as Chase’s 5/24 rule and restrictions on repeat bonuses within 24 months.
