Editorial take: Bilt Blue

The no-fee entry tier of Bilt 2.0, launched February 7, 2026 by Cardless. Flat 1x earn (no bonus categories — those live on Obsidian and Palladium). Best for renters who want the no-fee anchor + full transfer partner access without paying $95+. The 5-transactions-per-cycle minimum from legacy Bilt is gone, and Rent Day still doubles everyday earn on the 1st.

Editorial take: United Club Infinite Card

Worth it only for frequent United flyers who use the clubs regularly. At $695, you need to visit the club 15+ times a year to break even on lounge access alone.

Common questions

Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, Bilt Blue or United Club Infinite Card?
The United Club Infinite Card has the bigger bonus, 80,000 miles (up to 90,000 with authorized user), worth roughly $1,120, versus $100 Bilt Cash (~$100) on the Bilt Blue.
Is the Bilt Blue's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the United Club Infinite Card?
The Bilt Blue has no annual fee, so the question is whether the United Club Infinite Card's $695 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the United Club Infinite Card's benefits to clear $695 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the Bilt Blue.
Can I have both the Bilt Blue and United Club Infinite Card?
Yes, since they're from different issuers (Bilt / Cardless and Chase) the application rules don't conflict. Many points enthusiasts hold both, they pair well when one earns flexible bank points and the other earns a different currency.
Should I get the Bilt Blue or the United Club Infinite Card first?
Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. Bilt Blue: $0 spend in 0 months. United Club Infinite Card: $5,000 in 3 months. Pick the easier minimum spend if you're new to points; pick the larger bonus if you have planned big purchases coming up.
