Citi Legacy Cards but is there a Chase Legacy?

I know Citi has a definite distinction on their legacy vs. core cards. 

But I was wondering if Chase also has a distinction in their offerings or are they all core cards with some being cobranded.

Re: Citi Legacy Cards but is there a Chase Legacy?

By "legacy" you mean cards that are no longer available to new applicants, but are grandfathered/still serviced for existing members?

Examples would be Citi AT&T Universal, Citi Dividend, Barclaycard Arrival, Amex Zync, Amex Simply Cash Plus etc.

 

The only "legacy" Chase cards that I can think of are Slate (not Edge) Sapphire (not Preferred) and Freedom (not Flex). I want to say that Chase is pretty particular about phasing out products entirely or forcing the product change when the "legacy" product becomes unavailable, with the exception of the Slate, Freedom and Sapphire. But I could be wrong. 

 

I am not sure I fully understand your question. I read it and I think of the above what I wrote, and then I re-read it and think you are asking about the core-branded cards versus the co-branded cards. For example: Core: Slate Edge, Freedom Flex, Sapphire Preferred, Sapphire Reserve; versus Co-brand: Southwest, United, IHG, Disney, Marriot, Hyatt, Air Lingus, British Airways, Amazon, Air Canada and Iberia.

Another legacy card is the $49 IHG card. Not sure of the state of the Marriott cards.

I think I've figured out what you're asking 

Chase has "core" cards and cobranded cards, but there is no separate division since they do not have retail cards.

In a nutshell, all Chase cards are "core" cards, some just happen to be cobranded. 

In that sense, all Chase cards are legacy cards.
