Update: Now available for Hyatt cardholders.
Chase has rolled out a special discount program whereby you shop with a registered card at participating merchants and get a statement credit for a percentage of the purchase. It’s called Chase Offers. Currently, only the Marriott and Slate cards are eligible for this program.

Most of us are familiar with Amex Offers which give us a statement credit or bonus points for shopping at specific merchants. Bank of America also has a similar statement credit program called Bank Amerideals, and many other banks are on that program too, such as PNC, Regions, BBVA and more. Looks like Chase is joining the foray now and lots of the Chase Offers look useful.
People are seeing various offers currently, here’s a sampling:
- Whole Foods: $10 back on $25+ purchase
- Lowe’s: $10 back on $50+ purchase
- Staples: 10% back (max $20)
- Nordstrom: 20% back (max $30)
- Neiman Marcus: 10% back (max $30)
- Regal Cinemas: 10% back (max $50)
- Ebags: $20 back on $100+
- Gamefly: $10 statement credit for new subscribers (it’ll be interesting to see if they can actually track who is a new subscriber – that would be a different kind of tracking the typical Amex Offer tracking we’re used to)
- Hulu: $20 statement credit with Live TV subscription
These offers will change over time. The terms specify with each offer what the expiration date is and whether it’s available online, in-store, or both. You need to save the offer to the card before using. Each offer can be used once.
Aside from ordinary use, some of these offers can even work for buying gift cards, like Staples and Whole Foods. The terms do exclude gift cards, we’ll have to see if it works in practice. Hopefully, Chase will roll out this program to other cards too.
It’s worth noting that the URL is chase.visaoffers.com/marriott/ which is Visa’s website, so we won’t see this on Mastercard cards. It might be using Visa Trial Pay, and I wonder if it’ll stack with Uber Offers which also uses that platform.

As of April 1st, 2018, the current Chase Offers program has ended. Stay tuned for new and improved promotions from Chase Offers later this year!
Yup, it’s available on Hyatt cards now.
12/4 $50 Lowes purchase on Slate card (got Amazon GC)
12/10 $10 credit posted with 12/7 date
DP: Purchased $200 AMEX GC at Staples and it did NOT generate the 10% off. AMZ GC purchases at WF and Lowes did, however, generate the offer.
Is the max $20 or $30 meaning the maximum credit we could get (10% means $200 or $300 purchase) or the actual maximum purchase spending?
I made a $145.xx purchase at Nordstrom.com and got email notification. However, I have not got the statement credit yet and I see the offer back into my account as if I had not done it before.
Also I already got credit for the Quiktrip offer but I now see the offer again in my account. I wonder if I can do it again. Very confusing!
I made a $196.00 purchase at Nordstrom in-store and have neither received an e-mail nor does the offer show as processing. I’m going to give them until tomorrow in case they don’t process over the weekend for it to track before escalating.
I saw the processing offer when I got the email notification. Now it is gone and the offer is back as if I had not made the purchase. The transaction was posted on Nov 29.
Data point: I used my personal Marriott card to purchase exactly $200 in Amazon GCs from Staples and exactly $25 in Amazon GCs from Whole Foods. I received emails from Chase/Visa Offers that they were processing the purchases and that my account will be credited within 10 business days. The emails didn’t show up until about 15-20 minutes after I made the purchases.
Just to follow up, I received an email from Chase/Visa Offers today that they’ve confirmed my purchases and that I will be receiving statement credits in a couple of days ($10 from Whole Foods, $20 from Staples). Hopefully this is helpful for those wondering if Staples is sharing L3 data and if that impacts GC purchases.
I bought a $25 gift card at Whole Foods on Saturday and while I did not get an email, it showed up as processing when I logged into the website.
Sadly,when I got home I had a letter in the mail from Chase saying that they would be closing my Slate account in 60 days due to lack of use. They claim that starting to use the card will not change their decision. I’m not sure if there is any way to convince them to keep it open, but it’s certainly ironic that they finally make the card worthy of using and then close it on me. I never applied for this card, I believe it was converted from another card that they got rid of.
Used authorized user card at Lowe’s for a $50 gift card. No email yet. AU card has the same number as primary card.
DP for Staples. Purchased $20 gift card for Home Depot and $100 gift card for Amazon and was credited the 10%.
in store or online?
Yesterday I spent $50 at Lowes on gift cards ($25 Amazon and $25 Shell), immediately received a confirmation via email (similar to Amex offers), and then today received a follow-up email confirming my $10 statement credit and that I should receive it in 3-10 business days. Looks promising that the offer works for gift cards despite explicitly saying otherwise in the terms.
$10 credit posted! So it works for 3rd party gift cards at Lowe’s.
