Types of Chase Credit Cards

Chase has a dozen different types of credit card available, from your standard MasterCard and Visa to cards that make donations to select charities with every purchase.

Rebate Cards

Rebate cards give consumers points for every dollar they spend with the account. After accruing a certain number of points, cardholders can redeem them for merchandise, gift certificates or travel. Some cards with rewards, like the Disney or Amazon card, help customers earn discounts and coupons for specific goals like travel. Others allow cardholders to choose their reward from an incentives catalog. Many cards offer extra points when you first sign up or have promotions throughout the year where you can earn double points for certain purchases.

Retail Cards

Companies like Borders, Vermont Teddy Bear, and Toys R Us offer credit cards through Chase. Many of these cards can be used at other retailers yet earn points for the originating account's store. Merchants extend various incentives, too: for example, the Wawa card gives customers a free sandwich for opening a new account.

Gas and Automobile Cards

High gas prices are hitting everyone’s wallet, but Chase has several cards that help consumers earn free gas and discounts on vehicles. The Volkswagen card gives cardholders points that can be put toward the purchase of a new VW, while the Hess card offers a rebate on all purchases made at Hess stations. The rebate starts at 10 percent for the first few months but then drops to 5 percent.
