Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I prefer Chase Trifecta. $95 annual fee.
  • My setup has classically been the Chase trifecta.
  • I don’t think the Trifecta was necessarily overhyped, it just was the most approachable strategy for the average person (and probably still is).
  • Going Chase Trifecta - Points Boost actually fits me quite well.

Cons

  • At first I had the Chase Trifecta, then I added the Amex gold back in 2020.
  • I don’t feel like the chase trifecta is that good without the sign up bonuses compared to the BofA setup with platinum/platinum honors.
  • I don't think the Chase trifecta is worth it by itself.
  • The problems with the Chase trifecta have always been the catch all being not too strong and a lack of reliable grocery earning.
  • The “Chase Trifecta” has always been overhyped by influencers being paid to market Chase cards. ... The earning rates are garbage. Across 3 cards you only get 3x on dining and 1.5x on everything else, plus a random 5% quarterly category...

The “Chase Trifecta” has always been overhyped by influencers being paid to market Chase cards. ... The earning rates are garbage. Across 3 cards you only get 3x on dining and 1.5x on everything else, plus a random 5% quarterly category which is always underwhelming.
