Chase United Gateway Card is a no-annual-fee miles card from Chase. Its best everyday rates are 2x on gas stations, 2x on ridesharing, and 2x on tolls; everything else earns 1x. There is also 2x on United Airlines, a single-merchant rate. Rewards are United MileagePlus miles that only spend inside that program, so we value them at roughly a third of a cent each.
On our reference budget of $24,600 a year it returns about $100, an effective 0.4% back. The welcome bonus, 40,000 miles after $1,000 in 3 months, is the strongest reason to open it in a given year.
Get it if you already fly or stay with United MileagePlus often enough to use the perks. A general travel card earns points that go more places.
