[Expired] United: Add Funds To TravelBank & Get 5-10% Bonus

The Offer

Direct link to offer

  • United is offering a 5-10% bonus when you add funds to your TravelBank. Bonus you get depends on how much you add:
    • Load $50, get $2.50 bonus cash
    • Load $100, get $5 bonus cash
    • Load $250, get $25 bonus cash
    • Load $500, get $50 bonus cash
    • Load $750, get $75 bonus cash
    • Load $1,000, get $100 bonus cash

The Fine Print

  • Members can choose from six purchase amount options and, once purchased, the value remains valid for five years from the date it is deposited in your TravelBank account.
  • Purchases made between December 3, 2020, at 12:01 a.m. CT and December 9, 2020, at 11:59:59 p.m. CT, are eligible for a bonus deposit equal to 5% of the purchase value for purchases of $50 and $100, and 10% for purchases of $250, $500, $750 and $1,000.
  • The bonus value expires 120 days from the bonus deposit date. Purchases of TravelBank cash are not refundable and are limited to $1,000 per promotion per MileagePlus account.
  • This offer is also subject to all of the TravelBank terms and conditions.
  • United has the right to terminate this promotion or to change the promotion’s terms and conditions, rules, regulations, policies and procedures, benefits, and/or conditions of participation, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without notice.

Our Verdict

Keep in mind the bonus expires after 120 days from bonus deposit date. This is an easy skip for me, but it does code as United purchase so might be an interesting option for some people. Similar deal was available earlier in the year as well.

The bonus dollars received from this promotion were set to expire at the end of February. I expected the bonus to be deducted from my balance, but it seems as United extended expiration to July 2021. Does anyone else see the same?

Anyone able to split payment? (ie $200 on one card, $50 on another to get the $25 bonus)?

The bonus was posted immediately. When United run a similar promotion in Aug 2020, bonus posted 3 months after the initial TravelBank load

The agent told me she did 10 requests for airline selection change to United today. She is wondering what happening. Hope RAT doesn’t get attracted
