What the numbers are doing
Freedom Flex wins dining at 7% because the rotating calendar is on it this quarter, stacked on the card's own 3%. The quarter ends December 31, 2026; after it the card earns 3% there, and no later quarter in the published calendar brings it back.
Where they differ: Freedom Flex takes dining, groceries and drugstores; Amazon Visa takes gas, amazon, public transit and rideshare & taxis.
