Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
chase.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.

Not measured in this review.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on your site (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Real-user INP: 328 ms
328 msReal visitors wait 328 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Tap response (INP) got 10% slower for real visitors

Images and page weight
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.26 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.26 g of CO₂e: 31.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 952 KiB
952 KiBYour homepage downloads 952 KiB on a phone, 31 KiB of it images (3%). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 2 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 0 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
87 internal links, 37 external
The homepage links to 87 pages on chase.com and 37 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 134 characters
Your meta description is 134 characters: “Chase online; credit cards, mortgages, commercial banking, auto loans, investing & retirement planning, checking and bu…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Chase home page”.
Title: 63 characters
Your title is a healthy 63 characters: “Credit Card, Mortgage, Banking, Auto | Chase Online | Chase.com”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.chase.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.chase.com/video/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (918 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
/digital/resources/search-results.html is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /meeting-scheduler/getstarted, whose canonical is /microsites/meeting-scheduler/getstarted. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
2 pages without an H1
/meeting-scheduler/getstarted and /locator have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 68 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Every page has a meta description

Every page has a title
All 13 pages that loaded have a <title>.

16 of 18 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
1 link through redirect chains
1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.chase.com/personal/investments/online-investing/sdi.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
8 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (chase.com).
Valid certificate (85 days left)
The certificate from DigiCert Inc · DigiCert EV RSA CA G2 verifies for chase.com and is valid for another 85 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://chase.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 60 links work
All 60 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 20 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
chase.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
3 checks passed
Domain is 31 years old
31 yearschase.com was registered in Oct 1995 through MarkMonitor Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only entrust.net and digicert.com to issue certificates for chase.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Oct 2027
chase.com is registered until Oct 2027.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
About 799 words of copy
The homepage carries about 799 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
6 calls to action
The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Schedule a meeting”, “Apply for a mortgage” and “Buy a home”.
1 short form

Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Email authentication score: 90/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:tpo.chase.com exists:%{i}.spf.chase.com exists:%{i}.spf.hc4673-96.iphmx.com exists:%{i}.spf.hc4698-8.iph…”.
