Question about 5/24 & Co branded cards

I have watched some reviews about people getting approved with co-branded Chase cards at 5/24 and above, such as the Amazon Prime card. In my case i did get approved at 5/24 with that card placing me at 6/24, BUT im seeing others also getting approved with the United/Southwest cards. It would make sense if the Marriott Bonvoy cards should get a pass too ?

The following website is showing that Chase's Amazon card does fall under that umbrella:

Re: Question about 5/24 & Co branded cards

This site is showing it as excluded from the 5/24 rule:

I'd be very interested in some DPs here as I would like to get this card to replace my Sync Amazon Card

Re: Question about 5/24 & Co branded cards

The Chase Amazon card is pretty much confirmed (by strong crowdsourcing data) that it is not subject to 5/24. It is the only one though. There are scattered DPs of some of their other cobranded cards bypassing 5/24, and even a smattering of regular cards, such as Freedom or Sapphire family cards. However, besides the Amazon card, it is very much YMMV, with mostly no's denials according to public DPs.

 

Personally, I've had an experience each way with cobranded cards. In Nov 2021, almost a year ago now, I was instantly approved for the IHG Premier while at 6/24. Then in March 2022 I was denied the United Business card, because of 5/24, while also being at 6/24.

Do you mean no as in mostly not applicable to the 5/24 rule or mostly no as in mostly denials?

Re: Question about 5/24 & Co branded cards

Wait, Amazon card is Chase, I thought it was Synchrony? Am I missing something here? My acct was closed by them, wonder if indeed it is now Chase that I can get back in.

Oops, sorry, this was left ambiguous. I fixed my post. Besides the Amazon card, it is mostly denials.

I have the Amazon and Disney cobranded cards and was way over the 5/24 when I got them.

I applied for the Chase Amazon Visa earlier this year when I was at 5/24 already and got an instant approval. The pre-qual on Amazon is considered to be rather accurate.
