Chase offers a range of consumer and business credit cards that target different customers based on rewards preferences and credit history. Below we offer our ranking of the “best” Chase credit cards:
Chase Consumer Credit Cards:
card_name – This annual_fees annual fee card recently beefed up its rewards (including 3 points per dollar on dining purchases and 5 points per dollar on travel purchased through Chase Ultimate Rewards®), making it attractive as an everyday credit card. It’s maybe even more attractive, though, as the foundation to a larger strategy of obtaining multiple Chase cards and combining points to redeem at a 25% premium through Chase’s travel booking site or to get access to Chase travel transfer partners including United, Southwest, Hyatt, Marriott and more.
NEW CARDHOLDER BONUS OPPORTUNITY: bonus_miles_full
card_name – Why We Like It: Good cash-back on everyday categories, and a nice “catch all” reward rate on other purchases, with no annual fee. Earn 5% on travel purchased through the Chase Ultimate Rewards travel booking tool, 3% on dining at restaurants (including takeout and eligible delivery services), 3% on drugstore purchases, and 1.5% on all other purchases.
INTRO OFFER FOR NEW CARDHOLDERS: bonus_miles_full 👀
