Up to $50 Jan-Jun and $50 Jul-Dec on purchases made directly with Air Canada (excludes gift cards, car rentals, hotels, third-party products, onboard Wi-Fi). Purchases before 9/10/2026 don't count, so 2026 has only the Jul-Dec credit.

Before you apply
Chase’s application rules, as reported by people who applied. Banks don’t publish most of these. All banks’ rules
Chase usually declines you if you’ve opened 5 or more personal cards from any bank in the last 24 months. This applies to almost every Chase card, personal and business. How 5/24 works
Usually no more than 2 new personal Chase cards in 30 days. A third application within 30 days is usually declined, and you still take the hard pull.
Usually just one new Chase business card in 30 days. A second business application within 30 days is usually declined.
