Do you think Drugstores for Chase would include online pharmacies (Express-scripts)?
I’m not sure. They’re not listed here https://creditcards.chase.com/freedom-credit-cards/merchants but that’s not a comprehensive list.
Is E-ZPass replenishment included in the Freedoms Toll category?
Yes – they’re included in this list of merchants https://creditcards.chase.com/freedom-credit-cards/merchants
Can Chase’s categories get any more useless?
If you’re thinking in terms of organic spending, it’s unlikely that many people will spend $1,500 in these categories. Drugstores and some gas stations sell gift cards though, so it should be easy to max out in that way.
Chase Pay / Samsung Pay maybe has gotten too easy……
