Chase United Quest Card is a $300-a-year miles card from Chase. Its best everyday rates are 2x on dining, 2x on streaming services, and 2x on travel; everything else earns 1x. There is also 3x 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 its rewards come to $108, $192 short of the annual fee. That is normal at this price; the card only works if the perks replace spending you already do, or your bonus-category spending is far above a typical household's. The welcome bonus, 70,000 miles after $4,000 in 3 months, is the strongest reason to open it in a given year.
