On $1,000 a month of spending, split evenly across restaurants, travel, groceries and everything else: not on this spending.
18,000 points a year at 2.09¢ = $376, minus the $695 annual fee = -$319 a year.
That is a worked example, not a figure about you — we have no idea what you spend. Put your own numbers in and the same arithmetic runs on those.
| On | Rate | Cap |
|---|---|---|
| Restaurants and takeaway | 1.5× United MileagePlus | none |
| Flights, hotels and transport | 1.5× United MileagePlus | none |
| Groceries | 1.5× United MileagePlus | none |
| Everything else | 1.5× United MileagePlus | none |
2x on United, 5x on hotels prepaid through Renowned Hotels and Resorts, 1.5x elsewhere.

Credits count for $0 in the sum above — what a typical holder actually redeems, not the sticker value of every credit on the page. Welcome offer and credits not yet read from the issuer's page, so none are counted; added 2026-09-18 for its earn rates only. Travel is priced at the card's general travel rate, not its own-airline rate.
