How the cards compare
Are the welcome offers worth it?
If you were considering applying for a United card already, earning an additional 10,000 miles with no added spending requirements can make this a compelling time to act. Since there are no additional changes to any of the United cards, weigh the bonus against the annual fees, and consider whether you’ll benefit from other perks such as free checked bags and airport lounge access.
