The Offer
- Get 1,000 United miles by going through the Mileage Plus shopping portal to buy a two month Wall Street Journal digital subscription for $1
The Fine Print

- If the Member does not cancel the trial subscription by the end of the two month trial subscription period, Member’s subscription will automatically convert to a monthly subscription, and Member’s credit card will be charged based on the terms found on the WSJ offer page.
- Offer is limited to one (1) trial subscription per United MileagePlus account number.
- Introductory pricing is only available to households or customers at a business address who have not been subscribers to The Wall Street Journal within the last 180 days. If you respond to this offer but do not qualify for introductory pricing, we reserve the right to reject your order or prorate your subscription term to reflect current subscriber pricing. This offer is only available in the contiguous U.S. and may be withdrawn at any time. Sales tax may apply.
Our Verdict
When these offers come out, they usually come in bunches with other portals, but I don’t see the $1 offer on any other portal at the moment (just the $12 offer). If you see other portal offers, please let us know.
To do this offer right, you’ll have to cancel the subscription between 45 days and two months so that there’s no fee. Set yourself a reminder to cancel. Note: You need to call in to cancel.
It’s interesting that the terms seemed to have switched: in previous offers there was a limit of one per person and now the limit is per United account.
