Recommended Application Time
- [5/24 Rule] If you have 5 or more new accounts opened in the past 24 months, Chase will not approve your application on this card, no matter how high your credit score is. The number of new accounts includes all credit card accounts, not only Chase accounts. See this post for details about how to possibly bypass this rule.
- This product is available to you if you do not have this card and have not received a new cardmember bonus for this card in the past 24 months. Note that what matters here is the time you got the sign-up bonus, not the time you open the account or close the account.
- Don』t apply for more than 2 Chase credit cards within 30 days, it』s highly likely that you will get rejected.
- The time when you really need to borrow money from banks.
Summary
This card is a replacement for the recently discontinued old Chase Slate. It is good for people who really need to borrow money from banks, and is not suitable for people seeking rewards.
