Our Verdict
Previously this card had no signup bonus, but a waived $525 annual fee the first year; this new offer does not waive the fee, but gives 100,000 points – a much better deal. We saw this 100k offer at card launch as well.
The United Explorer card also just increased its signup bonus to 60,000 points. Given that most of us won’t be able to make tons of use on the Infinite’s premium benefits, it probably makes more sense to just save yourself the $525 annual fee and go for the Explorer card. If you’ll actually use the benefits, that obviously changes the story.
