Chase to Remove One Redemption Option for Credit Card Cashback
Chase has sent out emails today informing cashback credit card holders of a change in redemption options. More specifically, the credit card issuer soon stop allowing cashback to be redeemed as a deposit into an external bank account.
You will still be able to redeem cashback for a statement credit or a deposit into a Chase bank account.
Here’s the text of the email:
Beginning ‌3/27/2‌6, you will no longer be able to redeem for a cash back deposit from your Chase Freedom®, Chase Sapphire®, or Chase Ink® credit card(s) to an account held by a financial institution other than Chase. You can continue to redeem for a cash back deposit to an eligible U.S. Chase account or redeem your rewards as an account statement credit.
The change will go into effect on March 27 and likely won’t affect many Chase cardholders, and even those who may be affected will have a workaround.
If you still want to redeem cashback into a non-Chase account, then you can redeem for statement credit and then request a refund. That refund can go directly into an external account or you can request a check.
Let us know in the comments if you have used this redemption option in the past!
