The Chase Freedom Unlimited is a flat-rate rewards card, offering 5% cash back on Lyft rides (through March 2022) and unlimited 1.5% cash back for every other purchase. That’s not a bad rate, but you can get more out of this card if you pair it with another Chase Ultimate Rewards card with bonus categories, like the Sapphire Preferred® or Sapphire Reserve®.
