Freedom Unlimited 5x PayPal Offer
There is a new Freedom Unlimited 5x PayPal offer being emailed out to a lot of (all?) cardholders for a chance to earn some bonus Ultimate Rewards. This is unexpected a bit, since it is normally the Freedom Flex that gets to have fun with 5x earning. Maybe this is a part of the Freedom card's birthday celebration. We saw additional categories added this month on other cards for it, so that would check out. Either way, let's make some bonus point hay.
Offer Details
Here are the details for this Freedom Unlimited 5x PayPal offer:
- Link your Freedom Unlimited card to PayPal and earn 5% cash back on up to $1,500 in purchases with PayPal from March 1 to May 31, 2025.
- Activate by May 31st.
- Email subject: Activate now: (YOUR NAME), earn 5% cash back with PayPal
Even though this is earned in terms of cash back with the Freedom Unlimited card, they can be turned into transferrable Ultimate Rewards points. That is if you also carry a Ultimate Rewards earning card like the Chase Sapphire Preferred or Chase Sapphire Reserve. Here is a guide on combining points and how to pull that off to get more value from these 5x earnings.
Bonus 5x Earning Offer: ToP Thoughts
This Freedom Unlimited 5x PayPal offer should be somewhat easy for people to maximize. If you are able to maximize the offer that is another 7,500 Ultimate Rewards (once you move them to another card) for only $1,500 in spend. Not too shabby! A lot of websites allow you to check out with PayPal, making this one of the better categories possible. It may even work with PayPal in-store. Check your PayPal app to see which stores accept that, select your Freedom Unlimited card and give it a try.
