September is the final month for this quarter’s Chase Freedom Flex℠ 5% bonus cashback (5X Chase Ultimate Rewards®® points) promotion.
Registration is open through September 14. The promotion expires on September 30.
(The promotion also applies to those holding the legacy Chase Freedom card, which is no longer available for applications.)
Eligible categories are:
- Gas stations
- Rental car agencies
- Movie theaters
- Select live entertainment
Here’s a link of eligible vendors and merchants.

Registration is required (here’s a link) before September 14. The benefit maxes out at $1,500 in combined purchases. So the most you get back each quarter is $75 (or 7,500 Ultimate Rewards points).
As you can see, I’ll easily reach the $1,500 spending cap at my local gas station.
“I Don’t Have the Freedom Flex! Can I Somehow Get the Promotion?”
Getting 5% Back FOMO? I don’t blame you! I love my Chase Freedom Flex℠ card. My wife loves hers. My father-in-law loves his.
Remember, registration for this quarter’s promotion is open through September 14. You still have time to apply for the card, get approved, receive the card, register for the promotion, and save yourself some money. (Here are 9 reasons we think it should have a place in your wallet.) You can learn here how to apply for the card.

Chris I would appreciate your thoughts regarding the car rental bonus points. I always use my Sapphire Reserve card because of the added insurance coverage. I have two expensive (of course) car rentals coming up through the month of September. Would it be worth the additional points to use the freedom flex for those before the end of the month? Appreciate your thoughts.
I say yes. FWIW, Chase says apropos of the Flex’s Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver, “Decline the rental company’s collision insurance and charge the entire rental cost to your card. Coverage is provided for theft and collision damage for most cars in the U.S. and abroad. In the U.S., coverage is secondary to your personal insurance.”
