United cards now earn monthly rideshare credits, and here’s the breakdown:
- United Explorer: $5/month ($60/year)
- United Quest & United Business: $8/month ($100/year)
- United Club & Club Business: $12/month ($150/year)
To get the Uber credit without immediate Rideshare use:
- UberEats orders charged to a family plan can get the credit without spending more.
- The Uber reload works but requires a $20 minimum.
But here’s a smart way to maximize your United rideshare credit 👇
âś… Use the MileagePlus X (MPX) app to buy a $15 Uber gift card instead of reloading Uber Cash directly.
Why it’s better:
- It counts toward your rideshare credit & Codes as ‘Uber’ ($15 minimum instead of Uber’s $20 reload).
- You earn extra United miles through the MPX app!
Bonus tips:
Make sure you’re buying the correct Uber (not Uber Eats) gift card.
Stack it with Chase Offers for even more value.
Cardmembers also earn 25% bonus miles, getting 18 miles on a $15 Uber gift card.
If you did $15 per month all year, that’s $180 in Uber credit for only $36/$84/$120 (minus rewards) out of pocket thanks to the card credits. 🔥
Last tip if you’re still here:
If you have that $5 Citi Bike membership, it’ll work great if you have the Explorer.
