Activate Chase Freedom 5X for Q4 2024 bonus categories: PayPal, Pet Shops and Services, McDonald's, and select charities:
- American Red Cross
- Equal Justice Initiatives
- Feeding America
- Habitat for Humanity
- International Medical Corps
- International Rescue Committee
- Leadership Conference Education Fund
- NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund
- National Urban League
- Thurgood Marshall College Fund
- United Negro College Fund
- UNICEF USA
- United Way
- World Central Kitchen
- GLSEN
- Out and Equal
- Sage
For many, PayPal will be the easiest way to maximize the bonus, since one can donate to any charity that accepts PayPal and earn the 5X bonus, so as to not be limited to the above charities. Other popular vendors that accept PayPal include:
- American Airlines
- Avelo Airlines
- Delta Air Lines
- eBay
- Instacart
- iTunes
- JetBlue Airways
- Southwest
- United Airlines
- Walmart
Be careful about using PayPal with foreign airlines, however, since the amount may be processed abroad and incur foreign transaction fees.
Overall, this is one of our least favorite quarters for Chase Freedom 5X bonus categories; we hope 2025 will bring back 5X bonuses for grocery stores, hotels, and restaurants.
