More on Chase Freedom Unlimited
Earning Cash Back. The Chase Freedom Unlimited card earns 1.5% cash back on everything with no spending tiers.

Chase Freedom Unlimited vs Chase Freedom
You can still get the original Chase Freedom with a $150+ Sign Up Bonus [5]. The original card earns 5% on rotating categories [1] up to $1,500 each quarter. See the 2016 Chase Freedom Unlimited Rewards Calendar [6] for the quarterly categories.
Maxing out the 5% quarterly categories for $300 in rewards is equivalent to spending $20,000 on the Unlimited card earning 1.5%. However, if you aren’t maxing it out each quarter, you’ll need to calculate what your rewards will be under both cards and compare.
