Double your earnings by Cameron Sperance, Senior Hotels Reporter One of the most underrated no-annual-fee rewards credit cards is the Chase Freedom Unlimited®, which just had a new special offer launch last week. Via the special offer, you can essentially earn double rewards in the first year without any caps on the earnings. This means that for 12 months, you'll get an incredible 6 points per dollar on dining and drugstore purchases and 3 points per dollar on everyday spending. You can use those rewards as cash back like advertised, but what makes this card a sleeper hit is that if you pair it with a more premium Chase Ultimate Rewards card, like the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card, then the rewards you earn can become even more valuable for travel. The rewards can also then transfer to Chase Ultimate Rewards partners such as United Airlines, Hyatt, Southwest Airlines and more.
