The United Club℠ Infinite Card is offering a welcome bonus of 80,000 MileagePlus miles after spending $5,000 within the first three months. This card has a $525 annual fee, and offers a variety of perks, including:

As you can see, there are four personal United credit cards to choose from, and it can be tough to decide which card makes the most sense. In general, I’d recommend choosing a card based on the size of the welcome bonus, and also how the perks match up with your travel patterns.
As a general rule of thumb:
United and Chase have a suite of co-branded credit cards. There are several cards to choose from, ranging from the bonus of 80K miles on the premium United Club Infinite Card, to the bonus of 20K miles on the no annual fee United Gateway Card.
