Starbucks and Chase just announced a cobranded prepaid card

Starbucks and JPMorgan Chase announced the launch of the Starbucks Rewards Visa Prepaid Card, allowing customers to earn Starbucks Rewards by making purchases outside of Starbucks stores.

The companies initially announced this product in 2016. Cardholders will be able to use the card anywhere that accepts Visa, and earn "Stars," Starbucks' version of points, for purchases.

This is the second cobrand that Chase and Starbucks introduced this year, following the launch of the Starbucks Rewards Visa Card in February.

And the firms have partnered on other initiatives in the past, like Starbucks' acceptance of Chase Pay, Chase's mobile wallet, as a payment option in-store and in the Starbucks app.
