Miles · Mastercard · $99 annual fee
Last verified 2026-09-09. Review issuer source

First Hawaiian Bank United is a $99-a-year miles card from First Hawaiian Bank. Its best everyday rates are 2x on gas stations, and 2x on grocery stores; everything else earns 1x. There is also 4x 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 earns $110, which clears the $99 fee with $11 to spare before any credits or perks. The welcome bonus, 30,000 miles after $1,500 in 3 months, adds to the first year's return. The annual fee is waived the first year.
Get it if you already fly or stay with United MileagePlus often enough to use the free checked bag. A general travel card earns points that go more places.
