  • The 5% rate requires an Amazon Prime membership, about $139 per year, which is not counted in the math above.
  • Point cards are valued at their cash redemption rate (Chase points at 1¢ per point). Transfer or portal redemptions can be worth more; that upside is not counted.

Amazon is categorized as Shopping for rewards purposes, which is what determines the bonus rate most cards pay here.
