We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

Limited Time: Increased 50,000 Mile Bonus on the Chase United Business Card

  • Million Mile Secrets

    • Signing up for credit cards through partner links earns us a commission. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Here’s our full advertising policy: How we make money.

    Update:   This offer is no longer available.  Check our Hot Deals for the latest offers. 

    For a limited time, the sign-up bonus on the Chase United MileagePlus Explorer Business card has increased to 50,000 miles.  That’s enough miles for 2 round-trip domestic flights!

    You’ll get the bonus after you spend $2,000 in new purchases in the 1st 3 months of opening your account.

    Normally, the sign-up bonus is 30,000 miles after you spend $1,000 in the 1st 3 months.  So this is a better deal!

    This isn’t our link, but Emily and I will always tell you about the best offers, even when they don’t earn us a commission.

    50,000 United Airlines Miles Is Enough for 2 Round-Trip Tickets to Anywhere in the US Mainland, Alaska, and Canada!

    There’s no end date published for the increased bonus, so I’m not sure how long it will last.

    What’s the Deal?

    You’ll earn 50,000 miles after you spend $2,000 in new purchases in the 1st 3 months with the Chase United MileagePlus Explorer Business Card.  And you’ll also get:

    You’ll Get a Free First Checked Bag and Priority Boarding on United Airlines

    And Chase United MileagePlus Explorer cardholders can access more award seats.  Even if it’s the last seat on the plane (but you might pay a lot of miles).

    Remember, even if you don’t think you have a business, or are just starting 1, you could still qualify for a business card.

    I like this card because the annual fee is waived for the 1st year.  And if you fly United Airlines often, the free checked bag, priority boarding, and 2 lounge passes each year (worth $50 each) are a great deal!

    Plus, if you travel overseas, this is a good card to use because it doesn’t charge foreign transaction fees.

    You can use miles for award tickets on United Airlines, or on Star Alliance partner airlines like Lufthansa, Air Canada, and Singapore Airlines.

    50,000 miles is enough for:
    You’ll Earn Enough Miles From the Sign-Up Bonus to Get to Hawaii

    Keep in mind, award flights on Star Alliance partners cost a lot more miles, especially for tickets in Business or First Class.  So I prefer to use United Airlines miles for United Airlines flights!

    Bottom Line

    Chase has increased the sign-up bonus on the Chase United MileagePlus Explorer Business card to 50,000 miles after you spend $2,000 in new purchases the 1st 3 months.

    This is a better deal than the usual 30,000 mile bonus, but I’m not sure how long it will be available.

    Emily and I don’t earn a commission from this card, but we’ll always tell you about the best offers.

    50,000 United Airlines miles can get you a lot of travel!  And the free checked bag, priority boarding, and lounge passes could save you money and time.
