The Offer
- Receive the United MileagePlus Club Card with the annual fee of $395 waived for the first year
The normal “bonus” on this card is a statement credit of $100 without the annual fee of $395 being waived. So this offer is better by $295.

Some or none of these methods might work, it’s just a matter of trying them all and hoping for the best.
Our Thoughts
The main reason people get this card is for United Club access, you get unlimited free access to United Clubs and their affiliated lounges. You don’t need to be flying United to access these lounges as this is the equivalent of full paid membership (~$500 in cost). You also earn 1.5x United miles on all purchases and receive your first two checked bags for free.
Personally that’s not enough to get me to sign up for this card (especially considering how crowded United Clubs often are), if I didn’t already have lounge access then maybe I’d consider it but I really doubt it. I’d much prefer some free miles or cash back than lounge access. That being said, I know some readers will find this offer useful which is why I’ve posted it (we posted a similar guide back in 2014, but this is the updated version).
